    Comes in a beautiful 2-Panel CD Digipak

    Since their first gig as a duo in the early 1980s, the musical complicity between Steve Houben and Charles Loos has never wavered. 35 years after recording the ‘Comptines’ album, the Jazz classics collection of Igloo is reissuing it, completed by new recorded versions. It’s hardly surprising that in a country the size of Belgium, the paths of these two artists would eventually cross each other. They first met on stage and later, in 1982, in the Studio Igloo in Brussels. With no other witness than the sound engineer Daniel Léon, they recorded the vinyl LP "Comptines (Counting Rhymes)", a collector’s item that was released at the time with reference number Hasard 1002.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Comptines via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
