Mystic Estelle

A Man Called Adam are releasing a second volume of oddities and rarities called Love Forgotten Part 2, an eighteen track digital compilation of remixes, dub versions, film commissions, a cover of Captain Beefheart, Andrew Weatherall's legendary Godiva remix of CPI and a collaboration with sadly missed South African singer Brenda Fassie. As a teaser they've put out an instrumental of the blissed out, Balearic beaut Estelle, a song that first saw the light of day in my household on the first volume of the Café del Mar compilation series back in 1995. The Mystic Beats instrumental foregrounds the children's voices, the jazzy brushed drumming and perfectly understated bass and piano, the sound of summer - or spring maybe- just around the corner.

That's great but Sally Rodgers' vocal is playing in my head. I wish they had released these rarities packages on CD.

This is leaning back on your elbows, watching the world go by on the beach music! Transporting!
