Carpe Diem
Le Grand Philo Kola – Bonne Année
Appolo Music AMLP 003

philo-kola-front

It was december 23rd when, walking in Amsterdam, the grim
reaper tried to snatch me away. I got lucky and was saved by an
English lady. He did not succeed. It wasn’t my time yet and after
spending three weeks in the hospital I finally got home this past
weekend. So a belated Happy New Year from my part. Very happy
indeed, it changed my view at life completely. Le Grand Philo Kola
returns here with me today with this fine record. So, Bonne Année
from the both of us. My message to you..Seize the day..

Op 23 december j.l. heeft Magere Hein geprobeerd me uit jullie
midden weg te rukken. Ik had echter veel mazzel en m’n leven werd
gered door een Engelse dame in een drukke straat in Amsterdam. Het
was mijn tijd nog niet en na drie weken in het ziekenhuis te hebben
doorgebracht kwam ik afgelopen weekend weer thuis. Een enigszins
verlaat Gelukkig Nieuw Jaar dus van mijn kant, zeer gelukkig mag ik
wel zeggen, het heeft m’n kijk op het leven volledig veranderd. Le
Grand Philo Kola keert vandaag samen met mij terug hier, dus
Bonne Année van ons beiden. Mijn boodschap; Pluk de dag..

    Ouch, that’s a scary story! I am very glad you are well again. Yeah, Carpe Diem is something that we all need to remember much more often. “Stop and smell the flowers” is also a true trope… or, with your help, stop and listen to the music ;-)
    Thank you for all your work and the gems that you continue to make available to a new audience! Stay well!

    I was also wondering what was going on with you. You are not known to be silent. Indeed a miracle. So your angel was a British lady, jolly lad :-).
    Yes I know how a serious accident can change the view of life. Life is good and enjoy the music. Bonne Annee.

    Moos, I’m very sorry to hear that you’ve had a medical scare. I was wondering about the lack of posts and was hoping that you were ok. Here’s to a speedy (continued) recovery. And though I’ve said it before, thank you for all of your efforts to share music and educate us about the wonderful amount of music out there. Feel better!

    Oh dear! I thank the stars you are ok. And, of course, that you haven’t lost your desire to share such obscure and interesting music with us all.. May you groove on for many moons to come.

    Knap snel op en denk na deze gebeurtenis nog eens na over wat echt belangrijk is. Ik hoop dat deze blog in dat rijtje thuis hoort.
