Review by Steve Rackham

Camilla George's latest album, The People Could Fly, is a captivating and thought-provoking work of art. The British saxophonist has created a powerful and emotional tribute to the African diaspora and the resilience of its people.

The album features a range of styles, from traditional African rhythms to contemporary jazz, creating a unique and diverse sound. George's saxophone playing is both soulful and energetic, delivering powerful solos that are sure to leave a lasting impression.

The album's standout track, "Little Nine Night," is a hauntingly beautiful tribute to the Jamaican tradition of celebrating the life of a loved one who has passed away. The track features George's saxophone playing alongside the vocals of Cherise Adams-Burnett, creating a hauntingly beautiful sound.

If you following the London New Jazz scene, do not miss this album. Camilla herself is highly talented on alto sax and this album brings some greats in the scene together. Shirley Tetteh on guitar is stunning, with licks thrown back to Wes M and George B. I always love Femi on drums and Daniel Casimir has a sweet, round bass driving the rhythm. The culture and theme of this lovely album must be absorbed and understood, the history of Camilla's family and indeed the history of slavery were the spirit of this lovely album. Give us more I say..
