Kiitos! It went quite well, not note perfect but the atmosphere was perfect! This was one of the best we did:

Excellent... what type of lineup did you have...? you operate in 3 or 4 piece units don't you...?

If you had to chose a good introduction to his work where would you start...? Not the best as everything after that would be a lower point... most of what I've heard so far makes me want to hear more anyway, but...

We had a five piece band tailored specially for this occasion. All fans of Pohjola which helps with a learning process and eliminates the annoying use of sheet music on stage.  ;D

The line-up was drums, bass, keyboards and two guitarists of which the other played also keyboards. I played keys too in the intro of "Risto".

Hmmm, maybe "Visitation" (1979) or "Urban Tango" (1982). There's also a compilation called "The New Impressionist" but it's deleted and maybe hard to find.

The handy thing about the net is that they tend to turn up as "videos" or MP3's somewhere and I'm not an audiophile... cheers for the info...

Here's another from a better angle. The tune is called "Kädet suoristavat veden" which means "Hands straighten the water".  :)

Finally had the chance to listen to them and all I can say is excellent...

A fine tribute... and all five of you gel perfectly...

As stated, the more I hear of his work, the more I want to listen to, so your work here is done... ;)

The last number, towards the end, did I get a hint of "Max" or is it the other way round...?
