A cracking album.
Gene Clark, Roger McGuinn & Chris Hillman doing there best not to sound like The Byrds, never the less a great album.
Thanks Dan

Susanne Abbuehl - The Gift
Susanne Abbuehl (Voice), Matthieu Michel (Flugelhorn), Wolfert Brederode (Piano, Indian Harmonium) and Olavi Louhivuori (Drums, Percussion).
Streaming on TIDAL… continuing on with Susanne this Saturday morning and she and the rest of the quartet is sounding mighty fine. “The Gift”, recorded in the summer of 2012. As with her early album poetry is embraced and includes words by Emily Dickinson, Emily Bronté, Sara Teasdale, Wallace Stevens, and Susanne’s own lyrics. One sweet album!
There are few more instantly recognizable voices in pop music than Kate’s. She’s a treasure.
Grigory Sokolov is a recent discovery for me. He is almost exactly my age – slightly younger in fact. The fact that he plays so well perhaps suggests there is hope for me yet !! Ha!!

Susanne Abbuehl - April
Susanne Abbuehl (Voice), Wolfert Brederode (Piano, Harmonium, Melodica), Christof May (Clarinet, Bass Clarinet) and Samuel Rohrer (Drums, Percussion).
Streaming on TIDAL… completing the trio of albums that Susanne has released via ECM Records. ‘April’ was her debut album released in 2001 and contains music of Carla Bley, settings of E.E. Cummings, a radical remake of '‘Round Midnight’, and a midnight raga. Susanne’s vocals are wonderful along with the musicians in the quartet and have a feeling I will be adding more of her catalogue to my collection. Another sweet album!
