Personally consider it as my best-penned guitar song to date and is one of the last songs I wrote for the album. It came from out-there and came fast like a train and as if I was just channelling the stuff. And because of that I don`t get tired of it.

The Dance Of The Rooster was also a fairly mature idea in the joined styles of Albert Lee and the late great Danny Gatton. Great fun and one take (with one punch-in, he-he). If you like your chicken-pickin` you`ll like that. The rooster at the beginning is a real life Tsonev Rooster, recorded with my field-recorder at my folks` ranch in Iambol, Bulgaria. Had to get up at 5.30 in the morning and wait for the thing to overcome its shyness.

Firstly it`s a great honor to have the One-and-Only, few-feet-tall-but-truly-great Mr. Fastfinger (www.guitarshredshow.com) on Samurai Gitarisuto! I had this slightly Japanese sounding riff for quite a while, but really developed the song with this shredding islander in mind... The guitar duel was a great fun and for those of you who don`t recognize who`s who, he took the second solo and is panned left on the last solo/duel; yours truly answers on the Right. The final mad run is the result of the joined forces of the Universe so to speak. The Japanese phrase at the beginning and end of the song says: Play your guitar, Guitar Samurai (patched through a Lexicon pitch-delay)! Hope you liked it!
