I'm not sure I can rationally review this album because I love it so much. This is Desert Island Material indeed! Instead, might I suggest that you do what I did: Buy Tower Vol1 & 2 first, listen to them intensely, then buy Vol 3 and study the rearrangements. To me, it helped to appreciate all of the nuances, arrangements and performances. Ducret is the master! binomess

This one is a little tougher to digest than Vol 1 or 2. That's likely due to the unusual lineup: piano, pecussion, three (!) trombones and of course Ducret. The four tracks are given drastic rearrangements, which is part of the appeal, giving a different view of the songs. Essential, but get Vol 1 and 2 first. binomess
This swinging Welsh jazz combo packs each song with blissfully darting horn lines and simmering rhythms on their latest LP. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 23, 2022

Ducret's ambitious Tower project kicks off with a bang. While prolifically talented, Ducret's compositional skills are really the showcase of this (and his other Tower releases) binomess
