REVIEWS

"a brilliant pianist who hardly plays a solo without at least one turn of phrase that brings you to the edge of your seat" John Fordham, The Guardian

"a writer of considerable idiomatic and emotional range he knows the instruments pantheon from Tatum to Taylor" Richard Palmer, Jazz Journal

"There are no diminishing returns here (except for that song title) which quite simply means that this is an absorbing album". Jerry D'Souza AllAboutJazz.com

"Liam Noble, a musician who just keeps getting better" James Griffiths Monday April 4, 2005 The Guardian

'The sharp-end American bass/drums duo of New York downtowners Drew Gress and Tom Rainey were mixed into another cocktail on Monday, playing the music of the British pianist Liam Noble, with Phil Robson on guitar. Hasty rehearsal for highly wrought music makes for tentative moments but the percussively algebraic finale Jitters brought inventive collective jittering of a clarity, focus and density that sounded like the music of regular partners'. John Fordham, The Guardian - REVIEW OF RECENT CHELTENHAM FESTIVAL APPEARANCE
