Warner Music Poland Release Information
The album “Szalona lokomotywa” (SACD Hybrid) by Marek Grechuta in the series “Polskie Nagrania Catalogue Selections”. This is the first edition of this album in the SACD (Super Audio Compact Disc) format. The choice of this format is a nod to audiophiles.
“Szalona lokomotywa” (Crazy Locomotive), Marek Grechuta’s fifth album recorded in 1977, contains excerpts from the musical “Szalona lokomotywa”, directed by Krzysztof Jasiński and staged at the STU Theatre in Krakow (premiere in June 1977). Maryla Rodowicz plays the leading role in “Szalona lokomotywa”.
The career of “Szalona lokomotywa” was not very long, but its legend was perpetuated by an album recording. The cream of Krakow’s musicians associated with both the “basement” and jazz communities took part in the recording. That ephemeral line-up of Anawa included the then leaders of the formation, Michał Półtorak (violin) and Jerzy Wysocki (acoustic guitar), while next to them stood the first line of the best Polish band of the jazzrock fusion style, Laboratorium with Paweł Ścierański (electric guitar), Jerzy Grzywacz (Fender, synthesiser), and Krzysztof Ścierański (bass guitar). And the Alibabki vocal group had a separate role to play here.
Daniel Wyszogrodzki, an expert and admirer of Marek Grechuta’s work, recommends this album as follows: “Unthinkable on Broadway! This musical could only have been created in Krakow. Witkacy’s crazy lyrics come alive with music by Grechuta and Pawluśkiewicz, including the hit triptych “Hop szklankę piwa” (Hop a Glass of Beer).
