Sus&Jakob

------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------- “Last year saw the Danish/Swedish duo heading over the pond. They rented a car and got a not very detailed road atlas. Learned that public payphones are some quarter eating pieces of shit. And That cheap $7 chinatown voltage converter turned out to be a total rip off. They fried their power strip during soundcheck at the first gig in Nashville. An overwhelmed Klyd Watkins was in the audience, and the poet was later reported being "lost for words" when taking off into the night. So what about the music?? People who've seen them play have mentioned Patty Waters, Linda Sharrock, Brother Ahh, Strange Strings etc as reference points for the drooling gawkers. It sure is recalling the homeburned jazz sounds of the past. They play French horn, Flutes and saxophonic vocals over soothing harplike tidal waves. Where The Last Vocalions is the perfect late night/early morning nod out spin, the next album will be the wake up call. We for long thought this was the record that wasn't supposed to happen. The stampers broke a handfull of times, then later the pressing plant sufferd from a power blackout after a storm etc. It was planned for their US tour September 06. Now it's a new year and here we finally have it.” -Jacques S'moi, Lyon France ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------
