Roger Cotton & Alan Glen are two seminal figures in British R&B, they collaborate here with "Born In Black & White", an album inspired by the classic recordings of the '50's & '60's by Chess, Veejay & other labels.
There the classicism ends as all the 11 tracks are Cotton/Glen compositions including a wider collaboration in "Another Kind Of Love". Most ( 7 in 11 ) of the cuts are instrumental pieces in which Glen's harp & Cotton's Hammond predominate over subtle guitar played by both men although it is not detailed in the liner notes exactly who plays each guitar part.
Other contributing musicians are Peter Miles (dr) Pete Stroud & Marc Clements (bass) & Rob King whose vocal talents grace 4 original songs. "Born In Black & White" is evidence that new material, crafted in traditional styles & delivered with swing & feeling will never lose popularity.
