Apart from the Cleopatra label albums - all of which are essential
listening, the best one by far is the "Transglobal" double live CD which is
PHENOMENAL!!! If only the label (5 months from asking and them promising to
post it on numerous occasions) would supply uis with more copies, we could
get it out there.
As to "Venusian" - watch this space!!!
