  3. Many thanks Ernst, never see this one ! What a line-up, four superb musicians with the too rare Siracusa. Very eager to hear from this Slumberland.

  5. Thanks JazzHound for the corrected times. I've forgot to add them to the text file. The timings given in my post are from the ones listed on the LP's back-cover.

  6. I love it , thank you, especially the humoristic moments
    I found little albums with this inclination, but they have to me a special appeal
