简介

This is what my friend Henk Koorn, owner of the Sahara Studio in The Hague, Holland, wrote about me: About ten years ago Leo stepped into my studio. A few years earlier he had released a CD called "Faces" and it was time for a new one. Right from the start there was a click between us. Leo is a man who dropped by once a month or so to record his newest musical ideas. Through him I met a great variety of musicians he brought along. Later on I found out that he was a well-known figure in the 60's and 70's scene and that he wrote Run to the Sunshine, a hit record I knew from my youth. In my opinion he is one of the most prolific musicians-songwriters I know and over the years I got to know quite a lot. Leo is a person who can produce a melody, perfectly logical for the ear, but not so logical and easy to play for the musicians who came along. In what we recorded over the years you'll find Pop, Jazz, Country, Rock 'n Roll - and Blues. Blues was his first love and traces of it you can find in nearly every song he wrote: romantic, soft as butter, room temperature....
