about

On download, streaming and CD for the first time ever, the complete recording sessions for the Spotlite vinyl album ‘Fingers Remember Mingus’ expanded with bonus tracks. The original album sessions, and the extra tracks, were all recorded between 1979 and 1983.

Co-produced by Jazz In Britain with Dave Green, who formed and led the Fingers quartet and who provided most of the recordings from his own tape archive and wrote new notes to complement the 24 page booklet which compiles contemporary reviews and articles about Fingers, as well as many previously unseen photographs and other Fingers memorabilia.

“I have always felt that an important part of the process of making music is the social interaction of the members within the group. I conceived the idea of Fingers with that thought in mind. Both Bruce Turner and Lol Coxhill were totally unique and highly individual players and although they had never met musically or socially I knew that Lol had a deep respect for Bruce and I had an instinctive feeling that getting them together would work - I'm glad to say I was right.”
Dave Green, March 2024
