A new large group recording from the master saxophonist / composer Dunmall, his sixth for Discus Music, balances carefully crafted compositions with sophisticated improvisation from straight ahead to free. 'Away With Troubles And Anxieties!' is performed by mainly the same line up which delivered 2024's 'Red Hot Ice', but this time with Paul's writing more sharply honed, and with producer Martin Archer given free rein to shape the pieces - which were played with maximum spontaneity in the studio and are mainly first takes - into the carefully structured suite heard on the finished release.

This group is absolute dynamite, and Discus have cut them while they were hot!
