“Love Is In The Room – I’m glad that I was” Barry Cryer.

“How refreshing and rare to come across an album of beautiful songs, Impeccably sung. Bravo!” Don Black

“Some kinds of music are simply immune to changes of fashion or style. A singer – piano, bass, drums and eloquent songs. Simply timeless, in a jazz club or at the London Palladium. Go and see this. Love is in the room = Love of music.” Bill Oddie
