About this album
Live! At The Cellblock shows Daly-Wilson Big Band at full throttle, turning live big-band jazz into something punchy, contemporary and distinctly Australian. Issued in 1970, the album combines swing drive with hard bop edge, jazz-funk feel and modal improvisation, giving the group room to stretch while keeping the brass-section attack tight and crowd-pleasing. The set brings together originals and smart covers, including a spirited take on Kanga (Tie Me Kangaroo Down) and a reading of All The Things You Are, reflecting the band’s ability to move easily between showmanship, groove and musicianship. It remains a vivid document of the ensemble’s popularity and range.
