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!

Sommerhus, 'In Session', Thursday November 21st 2013.
Sommerhus (Rotterdam), In Session.
Recorded: November 21st 2013, ‘Gouwestad Radio Studio 2.
Tracks: Denmark (Tk 1-2)/Only You Do/Song Of Worry/Shht.
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. They were far too ewager not to come and talk about their re-incarnation ‘Sommerhus’, which came as a natural follow-up to their previous ‘Vera’ band. 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.

Petra Both , 'In Session', Saturday November 9th 2013.
Petra Both (Groenrijk), In Session.
Recorded: December 9th 2013, ‘Gouwestad Radio Studio 2.
Tracks: Klein/Wachten/Overschot Genot (Tk 1)/Ik Brand Een Kaars (Tk 1-4)/Overschot Genot (Tk 2).
Note: as calendars couldn’t sync in favour of a live broadcast, Petra dropped by the studio for a pre-recorded show about her self-released ‘Tante Pietje’-CD, which came out earlier that year. Inbetween chunks of a very talkative and informing interview, she performed 4 tracks live, accompanied by guitarist Sander Geerdink. Dissatisfied with her first rendition of ‘Overschot Genot’, a second take was recorded after the ‘show’ was completed. Takes 1-3 of ‘Ik Brand een Kaars’, a song dedicated to Gouda, the city she lived until moving last summer, where breakdowns, edited out of the broadcast.

Smekmuk, Live 'On Air', Friday September 9th 2013.
Smekmuk (Gouda, Waddinxveen), live on air.
Recorded: September 9th 2013, ‘Gouwestad Radio Studio 2.
Tracks: Supercollider (Megadeth)/Paradise/Untitled/Watching Over Me (Iced Earth)/Love & Touch & Squeezing (Journey).
Note: first radio-appearance of young, brandnew Deathmetal-trio from Gouda surroundings. Slightly unchained, but nevertheless nice and informative interview, intermingled with acoustic performances of three covers and two self-penned songs, which sounded quite convcentional pop/rock, rather than Deathmetallish.
