This record marks Budda Power Blues’s 10th anniversary. We wanted to make the record as a photo album, but replacing the photos with sound. So instead of taking pictures we recorded people that ment a lot for this first 10 years. It’s a very personal and sentimental record, and we’re very proud to have all this people in it.
