Even though this album is officially attributed to "Niemen Aerolit", the NIEMEN AEROLIT group ceased to exist some time before this album was recorded. As I have mentioned in the previous part of this cycle, the group fell apart in Spring of 1975. Originally, Niemen planned to record this album as a duo with the help from Piotr Dziemski on drums. However, before any recordings could begin, Piotr died (sorry, I don't know the cause). Mourning his death, Niemen secluded himself in his home and parts of this album (tracks 3, 4, 5 and 8) were recorded by himself at his home. The remaining tracks were recorded in the studio, but still by Czeslaw Niemen alone.
