The ZAR sucks, along with postal services - or non-services. I think it was only pressed in Japan or something along those lines and the CD is impossible to find. Holding thumbs it doesn't disappear in transit. Just love 'Sad Eyes' - Andy Latimer doing his thing too, on that track ...

Well glory hallelujah! The CD did actually arrive, prohibitive duties notwithstanding. I've been listening in the car. It's quite classical IMHO - piano ballads, lots of flute and wafty melodies, good voices, including Annie Haslam, but nothing that would stop the world from turning. Nicely packaged, I must say. And my favourite so far, after "Sad Eyes" (which I have to let be now for a bit), the very sedately paced "Always There" sung by one Martin Bacon who appears to be otherwise invisible - no idea who he is or whether he's sung on any other releases. Some Japanese sung lyrics at the end of the song by Chizuko Ura.
