Just as it says on the label, Bassist Williams plays it primitive, with a trio of winds and a powerhouse rhythm section which divides itself between a two-beat Calypso and a hot-blooded shuffle entirely on the cymbals.

...rather dreary dreg of tea, is invariably presented to the reader in a gown of crimson silk, which invariably seems to have a fetish effect upon Chad. Ultimately, Chad gets Rose, but only after she 1) lives with Eustace Hawke, a sensational poet with more than an overtone of Rupert Brooke about him, and 2) goes through a loveless marriage with Billy Pascoe, a lowly rustic who becomes England's greatest atomic scientist...
