In between the Golden Earring albums 'Seven Tears' and 'Together', both guitarist George Kooymans and singer Barry Hay worked on solo material. Kooymansโ album 'Jojo' was released in December 1971 and was the result of a sparkling and short period of recording sessions at the Phonogram Studio in Hilversum, where he recorded a collection of songs with some of the best Dutch session musicians โ among guitarists Eelco Gelling (Cuby + Blizzards) and Hans Hollestelle and saxophone player Bertus Borgers (Sweet dโBuster). Thanks to the spontaneous recordings, the personal lyrics - with help from Georgeโs friends Bruce Kirkman and Jerry Voisin - and Harry van Hoofโs string arrangements, 'Jojo' achieved a cult status and became a collectors' item soon after release.
The album has been remastered from the original Phonogram Studio master tapes and includes a recent interview with George Kooymans about the making of 'Jojo'.

'Jojo' is available on black vinyl and includes an insert.
