Yes - great sounding on original German vinyl as well. Even more inspiration for my next one -- hint: Footprints is my fave track. Tony Williams ride cymbal work is worth the price of the record alone Smile

Getting my record cleaner all warmed up now. This is a great album.

There's a great version of Miles' "Footprints" on this album as well.

Classic neo-prog. Check out this live performance of "Windowpane":



Love how much the lead singer appears to be enjoying the music.

A hushed, delicate album of free-flowing avant-folk, with hints of contemporary composition and jazz thrown in as well,STARFLOWERS is possessed of a warmth that belies its icy Nordic origins. Langeland wields a haunting voice, and her mastery of the kantele (a traditional Norwegian harp) pushes things into the celestial realm.

Nice album. I love Enrico and Hein Van de Geyn. I once saw Enrico live in Paris many years ago now.

Debs,

How is it?

I just have seven minutes of a jazz adaption of the intermezzo of Cavalleria Rustica played on a solo piano by Danilo Rea which I cannot stop from listening to.
