Absolutely love swingin’ affair, similar vibe to Go! but not as ingrained in my memory. Recorded the next day if I’m not mistaken.

Sorry I haven’t posted in a long time, but I read this tonight and nearly fell out of my chair:

Not to worry. I just like the site and the banter/insight that comes along with each new post. Glad you’re doing well.

Too well. In addition to my regular work, my partner and I are ghost-writing a book on cybersecurity. We thought we were settling into a lifestyle business, but this so-called lifestyle business is really affecting our lifestyle. I’ll try to be back with a post in the morning. Sorry I’ve been so inconsistent for so long. When I started, I used to make sure I did a post every day. I never thought it would ever happen that I would go so long between posts. Not complaining, just explaining.

@Rudolf: that record isn’t rare in the US. In fact, I think I have an extra copy to my “to sell” box. I like it and have always kept a copy for myself.

Clifford: I am surprised to see the Munich album in a collection abroad. The album is nice indeed.

I have that Monterose/Eardley on Munich Records — it’s pretty good.

Michel/Peter
Niels wrote the liners for an album by J.R. Monterose, with Jon Eardly, recorded in Holland.
He had read law at Leyde University, worked at the Noord Hollandse Provinciale Staten and was a bachelor, living in Amsterdam at his mother’s place.

Just another illustration of how different everyone’s brain is.
When living in Southern California about 10 years ago, I came upon a collection via Craigslist of a man who had been in the army stationed in Germany in late 50s. His records were also covered in notes all over but instead of cutting portraits out, he covered faces with masking tape. When the face was large enough, he would only tape over the eyes. How strange, I thought then.
