"The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side." ~ Hunter S. Thompson
The group "A little space" presents tuneful. intelligently written songs with heart. It's jazzy, it's funky, it grooves, male vocals and instrumentals. On the same playlists with artists such as Steely Dan, Al Jarreau and Sting, though uniquely original. Call it "Rhythm & Jazz".
"A collection of soulful, pop-based, jazz-influenced songs, that are best listened to at night for the full flavor." - Ben Ohmart (Music Dish)

Smooth Rhythm and Jazz music - all penned by songwriter, bassist, Big Al. The songwriting is undeniably professional. Changes, hooks, melodies, harmonies, breaks. .everything is where its supposed to be - and moves along with a slickness.
In "Meant to Be", the lyrics, 'if the deal is for real, then it's meant to be. .' is partnered with raw and timbreful sax lines from Ralph Q. Brown - mp3'd here as an entire song. "Centrifugal Force" is another jazzy showcase for the horn man - as he moves modally through the changes.
In 'See the Sun", we clearly hear the bright bass work of founder, Big Al Gruskoff - gorgeous layers of unison sax and keys, along with the support of Al and his midi world of wonder. "Here, Now" reminds us of some of Chicago's and EW&F's best - with a climbing chorus that soars.
Regi Perry's vocals are clear and full of texture. Overall , the CD combines great pop/jazz songwriting with accomplished instrumental prowess. ~ Don Kimenker, May 2005
"The Ambassador" (with Musical Diplomatic Status) Tom Slocum is on the case, helping the group with Business Management.
