Customer Reviews Who else could pull this off? I saw and heard several of them while I was there, and I never would have imagined anyone using a draaiorgel in a rock song. The first time I heard "Mammoth" (back in the 70s), I just about fell out of my chair! They used an instrument the Dutch call a draaiorgel, which is a sort of calliope that they have playing on the streets in The Netherlands. I think it was absolutely ingenious of them. "See See the Sun" is one of those songs I used to listen to, then lift up the needle and start it again, over and over. I had a large collection of Dutch albums, thanks to a Dutch pen pal who educated me through the mail. It absolutely ruined me for listening to American bands at the time. The American stuff was boring by comparison. . THANK YOU KAYAK!!! SEE SEE THE SUN IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES. WHAT A WONDERFUL SURPRISE TO SEE KAYAK NOT ONLY REUNITED AND RECORDING NEW MATERIAL, BUT NOW THEIR STUFF IS EASILY AVAILABLE ON CD. HOWEVER, MY LP IS WEARING OUT AND SCRATCHY. WOULD BE A PITY TO LOSE THIS GREAT PROG NON/GENESIS, NON/YES, TRULY UNIQUE BAND TO THE TOP 40 FOOLS OF THE WORLD. LE ORME, COS, VAN DER GRAAF, HATFIELD----TAKE NOTE! ALL IS NOT LOST IN THE PROG/ROCK WORLD. IF ROBERT WYATT CAN SURVIVE, SO CAN YOU. THE AUDIENCE HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE. old kayak fan I'm still very impressed by the quality of this band, their latest CD is called "Close to th Fire" and their quality is still perfect!. this was the first LP I ever bought. .
