Poka grohochuschaya slyakot' Vesnoyu chernoyu gorit.

cover Beth Hart's "Am I The One"

“My version of "Georgia" became the state song of Georgia.
That was a big thing for me, man. It really touched me.
Here is a state that used to lynch people like me suddenly declaring my version of a song as its state song.
That is touching”
~Ray Charles

PLAYGROUND ISOLATOR - Karen Stever
TAKE IT on CD BABY!
One tells himself strange things about the dark woods to the west
of the high "Eifel". There, where the sunrays can't penetrate the
shades even in nice weather. An inexplicable uneasiness packs
every now, also the intrepid biker with the rest in a nice afternoon.
Lucky chance, if you can leave the place of such events fast
and at any time. Ducati is thanks! -
Take care! STEVER music can change consciousness…
