Mark and multi-instrumentalist Al Wood engage in a lighthearted exchange, about Al’s adventures in ironing and navigating the bustling streets of Sunny Donny! On a more serious note (pun intended), Al's deep knowledge of the UK big band scene and his extensive experience are the stuff of legend. Delve into the fascinating connections between Al's tenure at Leeds College of Music and its profound impact on the current roster of DJA members.
Amidst the laughs, Al shares a poignant reflection on how the "50 Years" project served as a beacon of light during a particularly somber period in his life and explains how he got Mark out of a tricky situation in the studio using his amazing arranging chops! Cake was also involved.
