The Pete Roth Trion features drummer Bill Bruford, a founding member of Yes and a long-term member of King Crimson. ‘Group Chat’ documents Bruford’s eagerly awaited return to headline performance after a 13-year hiatus, and is his first new material for 19 years. The line-up on this album is: Pete Roth, guitar, Mike Pratt, bass, Bill Bruford, drums. The package includes a bonus 35-minute DVD and was produced by leader-guitarist Pete Roth and Bill Bruford for Winterfold Records. The set is housed in a two-disc digipak holder and comes complete with a booklet containing extensive notes and group images. “The audience might have been predominantly prog aficionados, but they left as jazz fans.” Darren Walker, The Progressive Aspect “Jazz, funk, contemporary classical, Dvořák. Nothing is sacred. It’s not retro. It’s not comfortable. It’s just brilliantly unruly.” Fasching, Stockholm
