The New Stan Tracey Quartet – For Heaven’s Sake

The opportunity to present this first recording by the New Stan Tracey Quartet has been an event of great importance to me for a number of reasons. It perfectly fulfils the motivation for the Cadillac Label’s creation and continuance since 1973, to wit the documentation and dissemination worldwide of unique moments of creative music making by artists with whom it has been my privilege to associate on a basis other than the purely commercial. It once again links us with a highly significant point in Stan’s continual artistic development following on from his historic Wigmore Hall concert in June 1974 when we presented him in a solo and duo recital that produced the Alone LP (SGC 1003).
