Elan: The Highest Time (2x LP) - LP

5 years after the double-platinum album Živých nás nedostanú, the album Najvyšší čas was released in 2019.

The recordings were made at Jano Baláž's studio in Bratislava, and Elán worked on it for more than a year. The mixing was handled by Jano Baláž, Jožo Krajčovič and Peter Fambi Farnbauer. The mastering was done by Jano Červenka.
The song Sekery a nože features guest vocals from Pavol Jursa, who co-authored several of the tracks, and the second guest on the album is Andráš Madarasz on harmonica in the song Sto životov. The cover art was created by Alan Lesyk, a long-time friend of the band and the artist behind the designs of previous albums and the unmistakable logo.
The album also includes the hit Ľúbim ťa.

Elán is the most successful Czecho-Slovak rock band. They won the Czechoslovak Golden Nightingale award in the band category four times in a row, from 1984 to 1987, and won the Slovak Golden Nightingale eight times in a row, from 1998 to 2005. Jožo Ráž also holds two Golden Nightingales as singer of the year for 2000 and 2001. Elán's concert in Prague's Letná Park on 20th September 2003 was attended by 85,000 people. Last year, this musical legend celebrated its 50th anniversary.
