Inca de cind am citit prima oara “Femei de pe net”, am avut viziunea – de fapt auziunea, ca era audio – a cartii narate.

Dincolo de placerea lecturii, in fuga imaginatiei imi facea placere sa o aud narata.

Defect de om de radio. Sau de om care a ascultat teatru radiofonic in anii ‘80 la Radio Gloria din bucatarie.

Constantin Ciuca

Constantin Ciuca - scriitor roman, autorul nuvelei Usa Glisanta

Nu mi se intimpla cu fiecare carte, cu fiecare proza.

2009 – moments that made my heart stop

I am not a good archivist.

I don’t collect stories in a single file, just to be able to write an end-of-the-year, best-of blog.

But I have a good memory of stories that gratify my physical & metaphysical persona.

This, coupled with the easy-to-use, free online archives of media outlets “CBC-radio Metromorning”  and “Rolling Stone”, led to the suggestions that follow below.

“The blues are alive and well . . . in Transylvania.” - TORONTO STAR

“If you’ve ever had the feeling that there’s not much left to be added to the blues vocabulary, you haven’t heard Transylvanian blues. Romania’s Nightlosers don’t hesitate to spice up your 12 bars with Eastern European folk music, gypsy swing and Celtic reels. And you really have to hear what a violin and a rhythm change can do for Six Days on the Road and Blue Suede Shoes.” – MONTREAL GAZETTE

Hanno Hoefer: vocals, guitar, harmonica, washboard
Jimi “El” Lako: guitar, violin
Grunzo Geza: keyboards
Octavian “Barila” Andreescu: bass guitar
