Album titles can be random,m ystifying or downright dishonest, but the title of this one is nothing less than the whole truth.  FUN is a scrupulous description of a prevailing mood and a unique musician's raison d'etre.  The Scottish saxophonist Bobby Wellin at 67 sounds about as quirkily lively as ever.

The new CD, The Best is yet to Come, from Bobby Wellins has been worth the wait.  It has been 5 years since the Satin Album was released and it comes as no surprise that this is, yet again, a musical masterpiece.The music for this album was inspired by Tony Bennett.  Tunes that came alive with Tony Bennett vocals now come alive with British great Bobby Wellins. Bobby Wellins - tenor saxophone, Liam Noble - piano, Simon Thorpe - bass, Dave Wickens - drums

It is remarkable to think that from the Jazz Suite recording, Stan Tracey and Bobby Wellins did not make another commercial recording until this marvellous CD! After 30 years, the old magic is still there. The tunes so closely associated with Sinatra are arranged beautifully by Stan's son, Clark. Features Bobby Wellins - Sax, Stan Tracey - Piano, Andy Cleyndert - Bass, Clark Tracey - Drums.  "...this is post-bop mainstream at its sparkling intelligent best!
