O’s Notes: When we received the CD by Talking Cows, we suspected a connection to the Netherlands as the Dutch are particularly fond of cows. Sure enough this is a Dutch quartet led by saxophonist Frans Vermeerssen and pianist Robert Vermeulen. Dion Nijand (b) and Yonga Sun (d) anchor the rhythms with solid beats throughout. There is a cool groove on “Not Yet” as they get into the ‘New Dutch Swing’ and some edge as they experiment on “Hang Glider”. We liked their vibe especially when they swing, and hope to be able to experience them live.
