Have this one in my cd’s to buy list for 5 euros at Amazon. Will most probably add it to my Art collection soon....
Van Ruller, Roelofs & Van der Feen – Chambertones
Good jazz in a Chamber music style.
Joris Roelof’s (clarinets), Jesse van Ruller (guitar) and Clemens van der Feen (bass)
A nice production in quality terms but the content leaves me a little unmoved if I say so myself, yawn - lives up to it's title I guess.
Plaing on Compact Disc on Naxos - A pleasant enough Saint Saens Compilation
Remember listening to this on the BEEB one Sat night whilst working.
Also saw them during the tour and was left unimpressed as I had loved the original version of the first (there was 2 versions)
Men At Work
Business As Usual - Tidal HiFi
Brings back a lot of memory's.
Edward

A fine RT album from 1985.
John Lennon - Walls and Bridges, one of his more consistent albums IMO.
A bit of The Cure.
Now playing............
Charles Lloyd - The Water is Wide
Charles Lloyd (tenor saxophone), John Abercrombie (guitar), Larry Grenadier (bass) and Billy Higgins (drums).
Streaming on NAS............ Beginning the day with Charles and the beautiful album 'The Water is Wide.' A long and great career and each time I play one of his albums I feel I can say it is one of his best. The Water is Wide is working its magic this morning!
Just in case you don't know what album this is it is Led Zepp IV
Classic album afternoon. Dark Side of the Moon- Floyd
Playing on Cassette on TDK AD -X C60 - Brilliant Debut album by Television from 1977 - Great guitar work outs especially on the Title track by Tom Verlaine
