Found this on my digital travels - a French label that used to deal exclusively with ambient music but have now branched out into other areas. Busy listening to this album at the moment -

PETE BARDENS -
Water Colors (so hard not to put that u in!!)
Electronic/new age I'd say - some say ambient. I like what I know of his solo stuff although he doesn't seem to get a lot of love in many quarters. This and
Seen One Earth are happy listening for me. Largely instrumental with a few vocal tracks. Today it's "Ghostwater" ...
He was good at watery things - I'm reminded of how much I love this track of his from
Moonmadness ...

Just read their Wiki bio. Badfinger sure had their fair share of bad luck over the years.

Thinking of You
This is really new age - I think it fits better here than in any other category. The album won a Grammy and it's easy to tell why. Yes, it's beautiful, harmonious music that is easy on the soul as well as the ear, but it's not inane or accidental - there's design behind what he does that makes it so much more than it might appear on the surface and anyway, I don't mind wallowing in pretty music from time to time!

Private Collection
There are two very beautiful tracks on this album. Nothing wrong with the others, "He is Sailing" is great as well, but these two are particularly gorgeous ...
"Deborah" -

... and "Horizon" which is nearly 23 minutes in duration - epic ...

I don't care much for the first half of 'Horizon'. Second half is superb. Very evocative.
And Deborah is much better in stereo -
