Anybody heard or know anything about this guy/band? I've only heard 'Adios Ayers'. Any albums? if so in the same vein, I thought it reminded me of Ian Brown having fallen in love with waiter whilst on holiday, returning and listerning to Ayers, Kevin or Roy. You Tell Me.

Isn't he the guy who plays at the Cafe Del Mar in Ibiza?

yeah, he's mostly famous as a DJ, helping invent the Ibiza chill-out sound (not to be confused with the later Ibiza house sound)

Indeed. He's done a few essential mixes for Radio 1 in his time. You could probably grab them off AudioGalaxy. Not sure about his own shiat.

jose is a god to me and my freinds,we first heard him in 1989 in ibiza at del mar!! he's had 2 solo albums out so far,1 called navigator and i can't remeber the other becuase i'm pissed at the moment but if you reply i'll root out the other album name and pass it on. besides his solo work(he only started doing his own about2-3 yrs ago) he's contributed to six off the cafe' del mar sieres. i've got several tapes from del mar,which i procured while i was on the island in the years of 89.90,92 and 94,i've also got jose's essential mix from radio 1 from a few years ago. if you need any of these i'll send em' to you. basher
