Thank you @gidcoe.bsky.social - Lovely to be part of the "Autumn Double" - alongside the great Françoise Hardy. The two songs were "Autumn Rendezvous" & "Anna in Autumn". Track later became "Anna in Winter" from "The Echoes On Departure" #musicsky #GNAC

A great collection of early work by Wim Mertens. I have the vinyl too - but gave up looking for it. This is a CD reissue on EMI classical. #CD #instrumental

Picked up my copy of Autocamper “what do you do all day?” from @monorailmusic.bsky.social : a lovely edition - including a nice Reginald Perrin reference: “11 minutes late” is doubled to “22 minutes late … defective axl rod at Southall”. Best of luck with the record! @slumberlandrecords.com #vinyl
