Andy Loore





Andy Loore : Water Show
Montparnasse 2000 : MP 55 (France, 1970's)


NOTE : THIS ALBUM IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE AS A DOWNLOAD

Not everybody knows this, but Andy Loore is a pseudonym for French library composer and musician Janko Nilovic. In fact, Nilovic was Yugoslavian - I'm not sure he ever became French - but he worked out of Paris and released many albums on the legendary Montparnasse 2000 library label. Many of his albums contain some of the best jazz and pop sounds to come out of France in the late 60s and 70s. Fortunately, several of his rarest albums have been reissued on CD, but not so this LP.
Still, Water Show is relatively cheap - either because it's not released under his own name or because the sounds are too easy. Either way, I think this could be the perfect soundtrack for a smooth summer afternoon at the beach.
