For the special occasions there is a guitar solo full of pleasure. Official Flunky (Story Book 2)". There is tenderness in the singing, there are greatest dreams in the melting of the melodic instruments, whereas the rhythm section is persistant in keeping it a 'romantic comedy', to speak in film terms; not a tearjerker that leaves you lonely at the end, no, “Official Flunky (Story Book 2)" moves you, touches you and lasts longer than a one time play of all the songs: the songs last.

Technically “Offiocial Flunky (Story Book 2)" has been very cautiously put together and arrangements are not to fill up the silence, but the silence is there to inspire to arrange amongst those o, so beautiful still passages in music. Air and light-mindedness are also hearable on this album. The quality of the musician is often very important to people; on this album, although of course the instruments are all played to their utmost liking, it is not so much individuality that counts, but togetherness: The blend of all instruments and vocals into the track you are playing. A lot of the songs are inspired by beautiful week-end evening talks, party-relaxedness, after school hi-hi-ing, long vacations to the unknown or a simple lullaby sang by mama. Songwriting is a gift that sometimes even surprises the maker. May many flower and flourish by “Official Flunky (Story Book 2)": MAY MANY HEAR THE ALBUM!
