Hello,
ReplyDeleteAccording to my request which is here:
http://easylisteningworld.blogspot.com/2009/04/championship-dances-for-world-ballroom.html
Someone whose name is: "cliff dweller" mentioned that he had a Cd-rip of "Vision of Change (1988)" by River of Dreams (UK).
I want to ask him to upload it somewhere for me or just contact me through this email:
Imperiled@gmail.com
May I ask you to put my request on your blog, so he can see it easily and answer to my request?
Thanks in advance.
Maestro.
Yay, thank you!
ReplyDeleteThe sleeve notes seem to be a very bad translation from a german original album sleeve note? Or did english people really speak like that?
Maybe I am the fool here, but to me this text sounds a bit, uhm, off, or odd.
But the music is just great, as always.
Thanks for this one. Great music for lifting up the mood.

I have recently "donated" a double CD (one of the -indeed- very rare ones you can find) by the great Roberto Delgado to the Lounge Legends blogspot featuring many of his "greek" and "spanish" tunes, guaranteed to make you happy. Especially in these troublesome times a good thing I'd say. So go and have a look. Thanks for this LP too by the way.
