Ekseption’s 6th album included some personnel-changes as both Dick Remelink and Peter de Leeuwe were changed by Jan Vennik and Pieter Voogt. But these changes didn’t affect the band’s musical inspiration and artistic quality as “Trinity” proved to be another of their best albums. “One of my last favorites of Ekseption, almost forty years after the release, you can hear it by this fantastic Philips recording on vinyl. Listen to the outstanding “Toccata” on Youtube; Enjoy!”

Beggar Julia’s Timetrip is based on a story of a man who travels through time in a spaceship and observes the great composers at work.
