Coming from a dutch prime time talkshow (DWDD) where every evening an artist plays an acoustic short version of his/her favorite, or just because.
From Youtube:
Blaudzun - Shout (Tears For Fears). The 1.22 minute version is the best.
thanks

So did you listen to Pomlamoose sing and play Mrs. Robinson?
Here's another old dutch one, 1969 I believe it was:
Brainbox - Summertime (Gerswin) with good old Jan Akkerman on guitar http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=CxUaohD3XZU

Maybe a bit monotone on Pomplamoose but she is mesmerizingly beautiful IMO!

The front cover on Youtube comes from a 2002 cd though, filled with mostly 3-4 minute songs.
Jan Akkerman later with Focus was once voted as worlds best guitar player. He's still touring bars and small concert halls, but still an awsome almost forgotten player.
Singer Kaz Lux became deaf as a mule.
I agree totally on Pomplamoose's beauty 😉
