Sam Records proudly presents a live recording of the Heath Brothers, performed in Paris at Studio 104, Maison de la Radio, on April 16, 1976. In addition to a superb version of 'One for Juan', the band perform two tracks from the Marchin' On! album: 'Watergate Blues' and a wonderful version of 'Smilin' Billy'. A suspenseful delight, 'One For Juan', seems to emerge from nowhere, a snowball of sound, dialectically picking up sax, piano counterpoints and lightfooted hi-hat clenches in a freeform mush. 'Smilin' Billy' is less expulsive and more measured, making for a beautiful soul-jazz number for scale-tickling flute and piano, backed up by brilliantly "bowing" double basses.
