A Fugitive Of Mercy (Original from Boskoop), live on air.
Recorded: November 22nd 2013, ‘Gouwestad Radio Studio 2.
Track: Can You Help Me?.
Note: back in 1987 I saw them perform during a festival, which forever fuelled my smouldering taste for the alternative side of music. It would change my life forever in quite a drastical way! 25 years after they split up, the complete band reunited in the studio for a great memories filled, very relaxed interview. Despite not having played their instruments for years (bass for 25 years, guitar for 20), they rehearsed prior to the show for 10 minutes and played one of their early tracks live ‘On Air’ as a one-off! Truly fond I was able to make this happen, as I originally planned to interview the singer only!

Note: Vera and Peter Jessen – Juhrend came to the studio for a fourth chat and liveset on this Thursday night, as other commitments prevented them from appearing live, while longer delay wasn’t the thing they preferred.

Recorded as a liveshow, they interrupted the great interview with 4 truly great, jazzy tracks. First track, the instrumental ‘Denmark’ broke down and was redone right away.

Tracks: Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda (TK 1-5)/Silent Home (TK 1-2)/Safety Zone.
Note: asked to help out on recording demo-less acts for the new ‘Huiskamer van de Stad’ livingroom-festival, I got the keys to the deserted studio, once the heart of Gouda’s local service radio station for the hospital and elderly homes in town. Since they ceased to exist, but needed to sell the studio, it was convenient to use the studio occasionally, to keep it in working order. The second session was with Marlou Koevoets, member of the festival organization, co-supervising the sessions that day. As one of ‘her’ guitarists doubled in ‘Op Visite’, she invited her bassplayer to come as well, for a small scale acoustic set. Since Marlou has a much stronger voice, it became apparent that the studiomikes had too much pickup-leaking, so we not only switched some mikes, but moved Marlou to the hall, where she could sing without disturbance. The session was a wrap then within the hour.

Without denying or leaving their roots. They completely stunned the jury of a local talent-hunt, which not only gave them the opening slot on the ‘night-before-Queensday’event of ‘Oranjenacht’ on April 29th at the market square, but also the invite to appear this night for an introducing interview and some acoustic tracks.
