we all know that in about 99% the originals are still the best but now and then they can be as good and maybe better !!.My opinion of course.BUT have a listen and make your own mind up!!! Leicester, Leicestershire, United Kingdom This blog is to share some of my favourite L/P,s and will be highlighting the very special tracks of well known song's that are very different from the originals. And I'm already sure that this album will not be forgotten in the archives so quickly, so I say thank you very much for this fine suggestion! Whereby Duke with his outstanding compositional skills of course stands out from the ranks of the big band leaders.Īnd after the first test I can only confirm my above remarks, a wonderful album that absolutely deserves to be listened to with great attention. But even back then, when I could hear him regularly on the radio - luckily he was able to produce his music at a state radio station without any financial risk - that he doesn't have to be afraid of a comparison for example with Duke Ellington. I underestimated her great talent by the partly banal german lyrics, and now I can finally make up for that - thanks to Espo!īut also Kurt Edelhagen has not been spared this fate, because with a German name he is less noticed than for example Woody Herman and other BigBands from the USA.

That was a big omission - at least in the case of Catarina Valente. Top notch!Īt installation the guys were great: on time, polite and good at their jobs.I got to know Catarina here in Germany on the radio, when I was much more interested in jazz from America and did not appreciate music from Germany as much. He didn’t rush through the appointment.Įveryone in the office was always so nice whenever I called, and I very much appreciated the owner, Somers, seeking me out to introduce himself. The gentleman who came to measure was incredible his knowledge and questions made me feel so good about my decision. As a consumer I realized how competetively priced you are, taking into account all of the service, product and installation! It is IMPERATIVE to be able to see the whole slab! I held my cabinet samples up to the slabs and POW, my choice was so much more clear. The selection was huge! What I noticed right off the bat is that the big box store I visited only offered small squares of a product from which to choose. Chris (my sales guy) was so patient and knowledgable as a first-time “designer” I really needed that. I’d like you to know that the entire experience was amazing.
