just to let you know

Drivin' with Colin Steele - Twilight Dreams

I knew the time would come for me when I would start feeling a bit "farsick" (never realised there is no word for "fernweh" in English - meaning that you are longing to be somwhere else). But when listening to Colin's debut album again in the car this morning there surely was a lot of "Fernweh" about...

I remember well the last time I went to one of his concerts in Edinburgh. Him and his combo played some of the Miles Davis/Gil Evans arrangements - a tremendous evening. I congratulated him on the gig later outside and told him that he is not charging enough for this sort of quality. He laughed and simply admitted he didn't even know how much the tickets were.
