Synopsis

Album Description
Worth The Wait reunites drummer Peter Erskine with trumpeter Tim Hagans. Erskine and Hagans both shared the stage in the early 70's with the great Stan Kenton & his Orchestra. Hagans is currently the artistic director for the Swedish Norrbotten Big Band. The band's mission is to perform original music featuring incredible soloists. On this recording they have that with the great Peter Erskine. After a long absence from performing together in the big band setting, Erskine and Hagans are back together again playing their own music, and with one listen to this incredible new recording you will hear if for yourself.

Brassy big band blast
R. Fischer | California | 05/25/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Drummer Peter Erskine and trumpeter Tim Hagans, bandmates in the Stan Kenton Orchestra some three decades ago, reunite for a concert with Sweden's Norrbotten Big Band, for which Hagans serves as artistic director. This muscular band swings hard from first note to last, and plays with wit, passion and precision, not to mention power--these guys can match the energy and volume of any rock band out there. The audiophile recording captures every nuance beautifully. Check it out."
