Records, a family label in more ways than one. John is the the producer,
James the writer and star attraction, and David Green in charge of marketing
and distribution. But the aim is also to foster a family of musicians,
developing and nurturing new talent who will appear on each other's
discs - the same formula used so successfully by Norman Grantz with
his Verve catalogue in the 1059's and more recently by Dave Grusin with
GRP in the US.
It will be a label for the new millennium, not only emphasising its own style of jazz but also taking advantage of continuing developments in digital sound technology James Morrison, Australia's best-known jazz musician for more than a decade, is relaxed and comfortable with the prospect as he sit in his brother's small mastering lab in Crows Nest, on Sydney's lower north shore. "It's something we've been waiting to do," he says. "With your own label, you've got complete freedom with what you record, when you record it and with whom you record it. "Jazz is for everybody. The bottom line is that we believe jazz is really good music and deserves to be presented in the right way." Morrison
