Steve Beresford :  Cue Sheets

Released 1996
cd time - 43:12
US Price $16.00
 
Improviser, composer, arranger, producer, vocal stylist and bon vivant, Steve Beresford is one of Europe's most charming and versatile musical minds. These varied and delightul cues originally composed for British film and television are performed by some of London's most brilliant musicians including Henry Mancini's favorite tenor man, Tony Coe.

This is the first American release from the wide-ranging Beresford, who has played punk and pop (in the Slits, the Flying Lizards, the Frank Chickens) dub reggae (with Prince Far-I, African Head Charge), improvisation (with Derek Bailey, Han Bennink, John Zorn) and is perhaps best known for his lounge/MOR/TV-theme homage/parody project, The Melody Four.
