Rottrová Marie: All the best. - LP

Marie Rottrová's greatest hits.

A collection of twelve songs, limited by the duration of an LP record, is now also being released on vinyl, a traditional audio format that suits this music very well. Marie herself selected, supplemented, and sequenced the tracks.

Most of the songs are ballads or mid-tempo, making listening to the album a focused experience of excellently sung, brilliant lyrics. Jiřina Fikejzová, Jaroslav Wykrent, and Jaromír Nohavica wrote words that perfectly match the singer's nature and the essence of the songs, whether they are strong domestic melodies by Wykrent or Jiří Zmožek, originally Polish songs, a cult cover version from the French scene, or a bold borrowing from the repertoire of Black Sabbath. In a supremely feminine, very elegant, and equally high-quality way, Marie Rottrová managed to turn these songs into unforgettable gems of our popular music over the last four decades. She was always reliably supported by a group of excellent Ostrava musicians from the band Flamingo/Plameňáci.

Considering the typically gentle character of the songs, the frequent transparency of the arrangements, and the soulfully, slightly husky timbre of the vocals, a lacquer was used for cutting the master disc to allow for the optimal transfer of even the quietest passages.
