Hi folks!  You all are aware of the great ECM bassist Eberhard Weber, who 
graced such tunes as "Mother Stands for Comfort" and "Houdini" (I 
believe)?  Well, you should also check out his solo work for ECM (the 
German record label that the finest living musician alive - Terje Rypdal 
- records for).  His first recording for them was "The Colours of Chloe" 
and it is a great place to start, IMO.  Also, his "Orchestra" is really 
nice.  If you like that milky fretless bass sound on those Kate tunes 
that he appears on, you might like these albums also.  One thing, though, 
his music often contains "jazzy" elements, so if you hate jazz (how could 
anyone hate jazz?! :-) ), then you may not like these.
Just a recommendation.....

Jeff
