He sent me a link to a video (Not Bar in Amsterdam, I forgot the name) and I was smitten!! Thanks Yngve! You can get the single of Bar in Amsterdam and one other on Emusic, but not a full length album. Yet. But I also saw they're on the list for Lilith next year!!! - -- Amy Lotsberg Collected Sounds blog.collectedsounds.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 28 Dec 2009 10:43:19 -0600 From: CollectedSounds Subject: Re: top 10 I finally got my best of 2009 up if anyone's interested... It's not 10 (I think it's closer to 20, of just the ones I reviewed, then a bunch I didn't) http://www.blog.collectedsounds.com/?page_id=6418 ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V14 #349 ***************************
