"Saxophonist Binker Golding and drummer Moses Boyd remain the most convincing of the new wave of London jazzers..." - The Wire

Those who know the duo will appreciate that every Binker and Moses performance is distinct in itself, characterised by a mutual spontaneity and a tireless interrogation of the infinite. This 6-track recording, taken from their Journey to the Mountain of Forever album launch at the iconic Total Refreshment Centre back in 2017, is a whole new interpretation of the studio album's first disc (with the opening tune clocking in at a full 17 minutes of semi-free exploration.) The audience's excitement, a sound-bed of whoops and yells, is heard intermittently throughout and only adds to the incredible vibe - a tonic perhaps to these gig-dry, restricted times.
