I'm certainly interested, Morten, and ordered it this morning, but forgot to report it here.

We all have to report on the forum, so no interesting new releases disappears into the out-of-print-category without us ever noticing! This shows that the forum is working!

Surpirsed noone commented on this disc since it came out (though there may have been in another thread).
Giving it a second listen, it really is a very good disc -- yes, even the potboiler is very enjoyable....but I seem to enjoy those more than most. Outside of a bit of odd sound quality in the fifth track, it's highly recommendable, melodic early romantic goodness.
