And EVERYBODY who helped in living and learning!

The album has been completely recorded and mixed in septemper 2003,

A first recording has begun in 2000 but versions included in album started to appear in 2001.

It was a work fully depending on people who took part in it and who kindly helped me: my friends, musicians, audio-produsers.
It was not a commercial project.

It was almost completely live recording (we used loops for Remix and some samples for keyboard sounds) and a very pleasant work for me.

This is not a Group-recording. All musicians were called just for this work (though V. Demianov, M. Vasiliev, E. Rinkevich and R. Imashev are the "Blues Doctors" group).

Why hadn't we use a real piano in our work? Both the studios had not the instrument in them at that moment. And we couln't find other place for it. It's the only reason.

All sound of the album, exept of the jazz version "Every Little Tune", was mixed in computer. The most problem was to achieve the fine balance and to bring together all the (differently recorded and edited in a complicated manner) material. Audio produser Igor Vorobiev made the things sound, using just the technical minimum he had - computer and none-studio speakers. Thanks to him very much!

Thank You. And thanks to God!

We are - Grigory Reikhtman and me - would be glad to find those who would be interested in our works. We have now several projects to realize, but while have no ability. At first we need a group - musicians who wants to play such a music. Then - studio. Also may be - publishers and someone who would support our works.

Grigory is a songwriter and singer, You could see his works at his Homepage, songs and albums in English and Russian, poems and other detailed information.

I would like to develop my "Voice and vocal" investigation, make better my own voice and help to those, who have voice problem, if I can.

I think I need to get more aducation (after Ekaterinburg musical College). For the moment I'm looking for abilities to get in any institute abroad. (I think it can be a chance to learn different vocal schools of the World). If somebody knows place or way, I'll be glad to connect with this man and be thankfull.

So if You have anything to say please mail us. Our addresses are songri@mail.ru and songri@rambler.ru

P.S. Excuse my crazy English - I didn't ever speak in it yet.
