Not only the virtuosity of Michał Urbaniak, but also his love of electronic sounds, synthesizers and the instrument that is forgotten today – lyricon – make „Body English” a unique album. Urszula Dudziak still surprises with its reckless vocals, as well as the ingenious use of effects. It doesn’t get boring! The album also played an excellent pianist and keyboardist – Harold „Ivory” Williams. These three, together with the rest of the New York band, recorded an album full of high-quality modern music. Also noteworthy is the intriguing cover designed by Ryszard Horowitz!
