For those Herbaliser fans who have been wanting to hear the band in its purest form, without any vocals or lyrics whatsoever (I prefer it this way, actually)...this is what you've been waiting for. The group has taken their best tracks from past albums, expanded them, and turned them into an excellent representation of the band's live show. For comparison to one of their live shows, pick up the Wall-Crawling Giant Insect Breaks single, which has live versions of a few songs. The sound is very similar here, and it is obvious that the instrumental cuts on the Herbaliser's studio albums have a strong identity all to themselves. The horn players and rhythm section mesh nicely; they are as tight as Orchestra Morphine. Ginger Jumps the Fence is definitely a highlight, and the whole album takes on an acid jazz/noir feel...this would make an effective soundtrack to any mid-sixties spy movie. I believe Session One was self-released by the band; maybe Ninja Tune will pick this up and release it stateside. Bring on Session Two, please....
