ROSTER TRACKLIST & NOTES PHOTOS FEEDBACK
RUSSIAN VERSION
For the past 15+ years I've been translating a great Russian poet / singer / bard Vladimir Vysotsky into English. Finally I deemed my translations worthy
of being recorded. But I wanted them to be more than just translations. I wanted them to be songs: quality songs, interesting to a contemporary listener, both a fan of Vysotsky and a novice.
Between May 2007 and February 2008 the album was recorded, mixed, and mastered in different studios across New York and New Jersey. The result was a unique album, featuring:
16 translated songs of Vladimir Vysotsky.
Modernized-yet-faithful arrangements of his songs: some – traditional (acoustic and orchestral), some – completely new.
A cast of 14 international performers, including stars from various genres: folk rock, classical music, blues, and heavy metal!
12 page booklet with translated lyrics and photos.
The CD is $15 US. Flat S&H rate of $3 is applied, regardless of the quantity of discs that you order or your address, foreign or domestic. Order through PayPal (all you need is a credit card), and I will mail the cd to you as soon as I get to the post office. Then it takes 1-2 weeks for domestic and 2-3 weeks for international orders. Enjoy!
