Obscure jazz-rock from Belgium that was included on the CD Reissue Wish List. Here's what the CDRWL had to say about it:

Sunhouse - s/t (Belgium) 1977 JWS Records. Typical late 1970s sax lead funky jazz fusion, but with some inspired guitar leads. Dealers are trying hard to compare with Placebo, but no way. More like the later albums by Release Music Orchestra, Nova, Aera and countless obscurities like Patchwork, Michael Borner's Sun, CCPP, and, well, seemingly half of this reissue wish list.

A very generic, middle-of-the-road, medium-intensity 70s Fusion album with one foot in the Blues Rock past and one foot in the Holdsworth future. Lots of fluid and sensitive electric guitar, keyboard, and violin. Typical late 1970s sax lead funky jazz fusion, but with some inspired guitar leads.
