Subject: Re: Springtime hahaha.... Actually, this is a quite old song, but not so old. This is a 1999 song. Basia was asked by (or worked with?, I'm not sure which one is the correct statement) Spyro Gyra to sing Springtime Laughter in their album. If you're interested, their album which has Basia's voice is named Got the Magic. IMHO, it's an interesting album because besides listening to Basia's voice, their music is wonderful (for me).

Thank you very much. I have most of Basia's stuff, and the collaborations she has done with Peter White and TaroHakase, but not got the SpyroGyra one. I have their first ever LP - with Morning Dance on it - so I think I would like this apart from Basia Hope Basia's new release is soon :-) kind regards chaz - ----- Original Message ----- From: Desianto F.

Subject: Re: Springtime hahaha.... You're welcome! It's interesting to find out that you have most of Basia's stuff. Well, I'm a little bit 'jealous' about that :-) because everything about Basia is hard to find here in my country Indonesia. Luckily, with the help of my brother, I was able to collect her five albums - except Basia on Broadway; consist of 1 Time and Tide CD, 2 LWNY cassettes, 1 Brave New Hope cassette, 1 TSI cassette, and 2 cassettes and 1 CD of Clear Horizon. I hope I would be able to add my collections with other Basia's stuff someday. Czesc, Desianto F. W. BTW, I'm also waiting (and longing) for her new release(s). - --- Chaz Brooks wrote: > > Thank you very much. > > I have most of Basia's stuff, and the collaborations > she has done with Peter > White and TaroHakase, but not got the SpyroGyra one. > I have their first ever > LP - with Morning Dance on it - so I think I would > like this apart from > Basia > > Hope Basia's new release is soon :-) > > kind regards > > chaz Yahoo!
