Julian (Woerden, Krimpen a/d IJssel/Lekkerkerk), live on air.
Recorded: Friday april 3rd 2015, ‘Gouwestad Radio Studio 2.
Tracks: One Summerday/Our World/Autumn Leaves.
Note: a band consisting op people older than me for a change. Reformed few years before, after initially breaking up some 40 years Ago, the band irregularly performs, balancing between the demand on covers or self-penned material. They serve both in a very rocking and grooving way. One of their first acoustic performances, which was given a great jazzy voice by singer Netty, while being very melodic at the same time. Another hidden gem that came to surface.

Note: Stef and Petr of the band dropped by a program recording in the adjacent studio, to promote the 'Huiskamer van de Stad Gouda’ festival, having prepared several songs. As the program only had time for one song plus a short interview, I invited them to do an impromptu session afterwards. On which they agreed. With the recorder running nonstop, they recorded 11 tracks in a quite relaxed mood. While editing the session, I intermingled some inbetween banter with the interview they recorded before the session, making it a completely different event and mailed it to them.
