Got this CD as Christmas present and it is very good indeed, especially Water and Goodbye Johnny Ball.
GBJB is excellent electronic music that lasts for over 20 minutes.
Also the hidden track is very funny but it works too, as it is a ragtime cover version of Kraftwerk's Neon Lights.

Recommended!

A childhood friend of his, so I've been told. wink

Liked the first track on the ep Those Arps.

I'm sure he has more tracks stored on his hard-drive so I'll be looking forward to his next release.

Come on Louie a full album next time round! :p

British thing Maryann,
Johhny Ball was a scientist typey person,great with Numbers and a very sharp thinker.
His daughter,Zoe, went on to present tv music shows and the like.

BTW Johnny Ball was rector at Glasgow Uni when I started working there,and a very nice man he was/is indeed smile
