Excellent -- Mr. Loevendie's jazz stuff, if you pardon the expression, doesn't seem easy to find!

This album isn't that rare. Has been reissued in 2009 by the Music Center The Netherlands, together with The Consort second album "Chess!". Marvellous music indeed.
Has someone a real rarity - "The Theo Loevendie Three - Stairs"?
Eternal gratitude will be his/her share.

Thanks, Reza, for your reaction.
One stays curiuos, though.

Bozo is mad, the site mentioned that reissued this classic twin-billeted cd has not responded to the Clown's inquiry. My copy is not as pristine as it could be from constant taping over the decades! Thrilled to see the intrest in the smokin' jazz side of the noterd composer - he and Candy;s dad made a great frontline -[see "Orlando"] and Mandela is a groovy alternate Dutch universe to the ICP axis. Bozo bets that in Holland there are some buzzed-out tapers who have tons of mouth-watering live shows sharing closet space with their old hash-pipes.

@ Bozo - You could try it again.

I try to get some CDs from them for the shop I'm working for - and I have got a reply some weeks ago - today Ihave tried to fix it - we'll see.
