In between the Golden Earring albums Seven Tears and Together, both guitarist George Kooymans and singer Barry Hay worked on solo material. Kooymans 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.
Thanks to the spontaneous recordings, the personal lyrics – with help from Georges friends Bruce Kirkman and Jerry Voisin – and Harry van Hoofs 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 as a limited numbered edition of 750 copies on light green coloured vinyl and includes an insert.
