    close your eyes...feel yourself being bombarded by the water hose of the trumpet...the drip of the drums, the trinkle of the piano and the cascading of the sax...over your head and then down all over your body...until your toes are drenched in sound...

    I'm ashamed to say this is a classic which I've neglected to purchase. Now where's my Mastercard?
