From the very first bars, when the drums and bass start, it is clear where the sonic journey is going: this recording does not lack a magnificent bass cellar. The tonal balance of this production as perfect. The sound bounces and resonates and spreads a particularly good atmosphere.

This superbly recorded and engineered album transferred on tape has been copied from the Master and will put you in front of a terrific selection of classic tunes, with some tracks supported by lovely vocals from both male and female singers.

It is not too thickly applied, but definitely very rich. Sorry to record lovers: this is quite different from the master tape copy, which is certainly because the sound material is played 1:1 on the tape and thus not subject to the many reversal processes of the production of a record. Another attribute is the clarity of the low-frequency sound. This is the foundation of good sound, which continues through all octaves to the treble.

When Hans Theessink's vocals enter and the chorus is accompanied by his background choir, a pure "blue mood" is ensured. The music is in the blues and country genres. The discreetly played guitar fits into the sound picture - not much more is needed. Almost all pieces are of leisurely pace, few are more fast-paced. Nothing is rushed, pieces with five minutes in length are no problem.
