This recording was initially been spread to members of the Vanlose Stairway Trading Group worldwide. Tree administrator expects that every trader who receives this show within the first few months of release will offer it freely for regional, sub-regional, and international trade or B&P to promote the growth of the tree so that “all will be well in the garden.”

Review:
The sound is gorgeous — and so is the performance! You’ll find a swinging Van in very good mood, and well as his winning team of musicians including Georgie Fame, Pee Wee Ellis, Haji Ahkba, and Brian Kennedy. Whether inspired by the venue or the Dutch summer air, Van and his band clearly delivered the goods at this show!

Administration & Liners:
Tree administration for this tree was by the guest admininstrator for VLS, Mr. Peter Sellers.

Van Tree Policy:
Please respect the efforts and the wishes of the dedicated bands of volunteers who put countless hours of time and energy into producing and treeing these rare live performances: please do not offer any of these tree volumes for sale.

The summer wind is blowin’ in from across the sea — once again the North Sea Jazz Festival is taking place – a venue Van never misses and you won’t want to either!

Twenty years have passed since this performance, but it still stands out.
