Ashley Hutchings: The Collection (Mooncrest CRESTCD030)

The Collection
Ashley Hutchings

Mooncrest Records CRESTCD030 (CD, UK, March 1998)

The tracks on this CD were taken from the Guv’nor series and from Ashley Hutchings’ big band records. Typical for Mooncrest compilations, the sleeve notes don’t tell anything about the CD’s sources; so I had to refrain to educate guesses. Instead, Ashley Hutchings tells a nice story about the history of the Albion Band between 1991 and 1996 concerning completely different albums.
