Ruth Anderson and Annea Lockwood were romantically and creatively involved for roughly half a century. This album, dedicated to the late Anderson, is probably the only logical coda to their relationship. The centrepiece is »Conversations«, comprising recordings of their very first phone conversations, edited in a way that it almost exclusively features their laughter. What they are laughing about is never really clear, but it becomes palpable why they do it: captured here is the excitement of young love. As if that weren’t enough, the album is rounded off by one solo piece each.
