Matthew Herbert talks about the process and inspiration that went into making the 2008 album, There's Me And There's You.

The Rich Man's Prayer. Matthew Herbert Big Band, Matthew Herbert.

Herbert's first album with his Big Band, 2003's Goodbye, Swingtime, was an interesting, engrossing departure. For all its intricacy and dedication, it still carried the faint odor of a lark. There was no doubting the sheer virtuosity necessary to pull off that kind of crossover act - it wasn't just jazz that was being welded to electronic music, it was big band-era swing. I can't say no one had ever done it before, but it's still not something you see very often  . There were reissues, a compilation of soundtrack music, a concept album about food that I personally loved but which probably confused most people. His last Herbert album, 2006's Scale, was good but not great, another album defined as much by its conceptual content as its tunes.

The second album Matthew Herbert Big Band, There's Me And There's You, was released in October 2008. In the making of the record Herbert recorded inside the Houses of Parliament, at a landfill site, and in the lobby of the British Museum with 70 volunteers. In 2010 Matthew Herbert released two of a three part trilogy of albums. The first, One One, was entirely written and performed by Herbert alone, the second, One Club, was made exclusively out of sounds recorded at the Robert Johnson nightclub in Offenbach in Germany on one night.
