Following the acclaimed 'Jazz On the Corner' compilation in 2018, Martin Freeman teams up again with Acid Jazz's renowned head honcho Eddie Piller to present another veritable and personal collection of tracks. The concept is simple: an album packed full of jazz gems from lesser known tracks by Nina Simone and Nicola Conte, to classics from Roberta Flack, Roy Ayers and The MJQ; whilst the new British jazz generation is represented by Emma-Jean Thackray.
