After the success of the Looking Glass album, released as the bonus disc of Spellbound 8 years ago, here comes more acoustic versions of songs taken from the earlier records of Jay-Jay Johanson. Recorded live on October 7th 2016 in Jay-Jay's living room.

I Fantasize Of You (Looking Glass II)

The Moss Valley is a five mile stretch of ancient woodlands, rivers, moors and farms along theYorkshire/Derbyshire border. This valley was the landscape of my upbringing, hamlets and small villages all hidden away, forgotten and nested alongside the remnants of rich agricultural labour and industrial workings. I started spending days walking miles throughout the Valley, exploring the land on foot, through hidden walkways, preserved bridleways and ancient woodlands digging into the soil, making tracks and taking in the air. I discovered a sense of place from exploring the natural environments and rich wildlife around the area. It was through gentle movement and close observation which brought an understanding, a connection, a stillness and a rooted sense of belonging.

Song taken from Jim Ghedi's 2nd album 'A Hymn for Ancient Land' released with Basin Rock early 2018.

Widely considered to be the “Barbara Streisand of Japan”, Saori Yuki released her debut album in Japan in 1969 and has gone on to make over 30 albums in her 42 year-career. Yuki discovered Pink Martini after the band covered her song “Taya Tan” for their 2007 album Hey Eugene! Most recently, Yuki sang a verse of “White Christmas” in Japanese for the band’s hit 2010 holiday album Joy To The World.

In honor of the year of her debut release, Saori Yuki partnered with Pink Martini and producer Thomas M. Lauderdale to create a loving tribute to the music released in 1969. Featuring Japanese pop hits alongside internationally recognized tunes like Jorge Ben’s “Mas que nada” and “Puff the Magic Dragon”, “1969″ is a brilliant collaboration, with Thomas M. Lauderdale’s magical arrangements, Pink Martini’s stellar musicianship, and Saori Yuki’s soaring vocals.
