Pastorale isn’t so much a record, as a great effort at dragging you into another world. Since completing 1968’s ‘De sneeuwkoningin’, Liesbeth List fulfilled their contract with EMI Records and where under no obligation to release another album. Since Liesbeth List last CD (Pastorale) on EMI Records back in 1968, I have felt a massive void in my life. IT makes me wanna dance!
This track is nearly perfect if not perfect. This track is just a stunning masterpiece. Minstreel in het gras is a amazing, simple song by Liesbeth List at the top of his game. La pluie - A nice song. Des ronds dans l’eau is the song that really did it for me. Simply the finest work ever from this multi-talented singer. Draai weer bij is filled with very deep emotions that will truly touch your heart. Musically Door het hoog geboren koren is superior to other tracks in Pastorale. The sound of Pastorale is difficult to describe, as it seems to squirm in a sensual manner, unlike anything ever created. Endymion is the albums lead single as well as biggest hit. This is one of those tracks that should not be judged after the first hearing. Candice is the funkiest number on the album. Laat me niet alleen stands out to me for its audacious melody and sheer beauty.
