UK jazz master Chip Wickham follows last year's brilliant soulful long-player Cloud 10 with a deftly crafted, reflective EP of beautiful spiritual jazz sounds influenced by the soulful sounds of Yusef Lateef. Chip's music has always drawn from a broad world of influences from hip-hop to Roland Kirk and from classic funk to the classic '60s Brit-Jazz sound of Tubby Hayes. But Love & Life finds him foregrounding his wonderful flute playing and producing a perfect four- tracker of reflective, peaceful jazz that elevates and inspires as well as a trademark slice of boppish soul jazz - the jaunty Space Walk.A1. Space Walk A2. Love & LifeB1. Seven WorldsB2. Slow Down Look Around
