He is currently working with PHIL COLLINS on his latest album « 20 Good Reasons », this has been a long and excting project and we are looking forward to the upcoming release on Atlantic Records in September 2010.

John has a new disc also coming out in spring 2010 with his quintet featuring the great « Kenny Wheeler ».
« Saturday night and sunday morning » is based on the book and film by Alan Sillitoe and is an imaginary jazz soundtrack to the book/film composed by John. The film came out 50 years ago and we hope to celebrate this and Kenny’s 80th birthday in 2010 with Alan Sillitoe who supports the project.
