Ken or anyone who's listened to it :

Is there anywhere to hear samples of the Randy Roos disc? [I've searched to no avail.]

If not, can you give me a sense and mood of the disc, please? [I did read the writeup at Laser. Looking for a bit more.]

Thank you.

We are revamping our label website and will be adding Modulus releases (with sound samples). Should go down his week.

The album has a lot of hi-nrg tracks with guitars dominating. Randy played a variety of guitars - including a fretless. I'm broadly reminded of Jeff Beck's fusion period.

Thanks Ken.

Your label site update will make things easier in the future. I've heard samples of Het Pandorra Ensemble - III (great!) and have read enough about Mistral (great players) to make a decision. I don't know what criteria you're using to populate the Modulus label. If the first two are any indication of what's to come -- I can't wait

It looks like the Modulus releases are on regular order status now -- don't have to order separately.

The criteria is...anything I personally like in a wide open field of genres. You'll have to trust me.
