Posted by: Gunnar Jansson on 21 October 2006

I thought I share this one with you.

Released this week in Sweden, not any idea if gets abroad or not. (Probably not getting any press outside Sweden) On their own Moule recordings.

Fire In The Hole Sara Isaksson and Rebecka Törnqvist sing Steely Dan.

I like it a lot! Very sparse arranged. Mainly just the two very accomplished singers and their keyboards and the SONGS.

To Fred Simon: I gather you´ll like this one.

If you email them directly they might help you

Info@moule.se

I would try that. You might be able to buy it directly from them.
Otherwise I think you know better how to get hold of that record were you are in Brittain.

Jan.
Buy it with confidence.

Hope you can get it through them.
Wouldn´t surprise me.
Otherwise it might be some way through the net or import through your record store.
Anyway, I hope it works out.

I received a copy of this from Sweden today but haven't ordered it from anywhere. Are you the kind donor? I can't think of where else it could have come from.

This CD has been mentioned (and highly rated) by contributors to the "Official" Steely Dan Fanzine The Dandom Digest ....there can be no higher praise!
....be interested in what you reckon Dickensian

Blimey - they look a bit cuter than Fagen and Becker!! How come these Scandinavian women are always so darned ugly?

Might try and get this one if the rest of the CD is as good.

It's absolutely wonderful on a cheap Sony midi system, so when i get back in my house next week and set up the naim kit I would expect it would go up a notch or two.

Still don't know who sent it

LOVERLY

diccus

ps. Jet you won't like it as it has female lead singers and won't make you deaf

that´s great!
No it wasn´t me...
Who knows, it might just be them themselves (the ladies I mean)?
Anyway great gesture who ever it was!

And it is really a good album is it not?

I really am freeked out now. Stevega are you responsible for this kind deed. Don't know how they got my address. It was sent by a P-G Eriksson from somewhere in Sweden.

Remember folks if you read my post in the padded cell about stalkers i'm a bit on the paranoid side

Please reveal all

This CD sounds really interesting. I found it on the swedish site cdon.com.

If you press the euro flag, you can register and order in english, which is much easier than guessing what the swedish may mean! Under Euro 20 including post to the UK. I'll look forward to it.

Better a freebie from your fans though!!

Nurse, the straight jackets. Bloomin gorgeous cd though. They're coming to take me away ha ha

Now that I have figured out how to mail order from overseas, I got mine today. Truly outstanding, and I am definitely the first on my block to have it!

Posted on: 30 November 2006 by Diccus62

Thanks Munch, I think you might like this record, its really stripped down to the basics...... a little reminiscent of your favourite 'the great lake swimmers'. If you adore Steely Dan like me then even better.

Gunnar, you are correct, sir. I loved the samples I heard ... thanks very much for the tip. Now I just have to figure out how to get it in the USA.
