  7. Thanks, i just grabbed it and listen to this show. Sonia sounds a lot different from other versions known to me. Anybody guess where to catch "Yes Please" album? Due to my research, it is unavailable now except for extremely high priced vinyl copies at some webmarkets...

  10. Thank you very much, onxidlib - no wonder i cannot find it - there is no Brotherhood of Breath in title nor tag. And thanks kinabalu - i would like to hear better quality version of Yes Please! I was listening to mp3's and like it a lot, despite that it is very different band comparing to that from first half of 70's. Quiet organised and disciplined, nice solos and clear accompanying. Surely i will listen to it more often than to Country Cooking.
