You Know I Love You - song by Miro Zbirka

[#gpmproject]

Hallo to all...

few weeks ago I found in my PC - old album recorded by singer called Miro Zbirka - from Slovakia. He is about 55 years old now or maybe more. He recorded lot a lot of good music and albums in slovak language but in dark times of f***ing comunism in eastern europe he recorded two albums in english language for western fans of his music. His songs after that were not allowed to listen...I know, you can't imagine that...but it was really hard times. No chance to travel, no chance learn english language or languages of western europe countries.

In summer - august of 1969 big army of Russian, Hungarian, Polish, soliders invited in to the Czechoslovakia. My father spend three years in jail, because he wrote on wall with white paint: Russian army go home! He was so young, just 18....,

Sorry for my words - but it was dark part of history - now everything is different...

Miro Zbirka and his songs (exactly other singers as well ) were not allowed especially songs recorded in english ...one of them is song from his album called Doctor Dream - You Know I Love You...
here it is for you in my performance...

please excuse me my english...but I'm still learning:-))))

Welcome, Lubo and so interesting to hear your story. This must have some influence on the raw playing and singing which is so honest and direct.  Nice job!

This is a really good song lubo. The first thing I listened to this morning, and I'm very pleased with it. The tone for my day is set, and I'm in a good mood.

A big welcome back to you Lubo!

Your voice sounds really good...well recorded, a nice balance of clean and distorted guitars.

I'm looking forward to your future posts.
