POINT OF NO RETURN
“This album is a continuation of the Global Sound project. The talented sax player Chris Cheek joined us instead of Jerry and Ayi gracefully took Manolo’s spot.
I’ve put more emphasis on the lyrics and vocal expression on this album. I was very sick while recording it and had to be operated on my vocal cords shortly after. Some say that the most powerful expression comes when we are in great pain. Anyway, my voice is rusty and reminds of Marianne Faithfull’s voice. First time that I get the honor to work with the legendary Jan Erik Konghaug from Rainbow Studio, Norway.
This is one of my favorite albums.”
