    Utters - could you give us an mp3 or flacc download? It's in some audio format that I can't play, or even open to change into another format.

    Or am I being a scoper?

    Ah sorry it's in AAC format, higher quality than MP3 but limited to Mac OSX or iOS

    Sorry!

    @RAJ you need to GET to know- this is proto yacht-rock at it's finest. Esp. 'high tide' with tom scott on the sax

    Has it recently been re-issued (by Get On Down)?

    love Maybe I’ll Run Away, but not really got into the other tracks so much.

    Check out David Batteau's - Happy in Hollywood LP (serious yacht rock headz only)

    I saw him perform in Pasadena several years ago and my mom's husband who is a friend of a singer who gigs with him introduced him to me and signed my El Chicano LP ("Tell Her She's Lovely"). I wasnt aware of the Columbia record, though. Thank you.

    This Batteau sounds great so far, thanks.

    Yeah, the BatteauX album is a classic.
