Publications, recordings and other outputs

The first officially released album of Oldřich Janota, Czech poet and guitarist. A remastered and extended version was released in 1996. I played drums, percussions and trumpets as well as participated in some musical preparations. We had a couple of home preparatory sessions and then recorded the album in Bratislava Opus Studios, the only digital studios in Czechoslovakia of the time. Final mastering was taking place during the revolutionary weeks of 1989. [audio samples here]
