A Lot Of Reasons Convinced David Poltrock To Finally Make A Record The Urge To Create Good Music The Glamour Of Rock & Roll The Girls The Money And Most Important The Desire To Make A Statement To Those Who Ragged Him At School Because His Mom Dressed Him In Silly Shorts. Poltrock Live And Studio Keyboardist For Belgium-Based Hooverphonic Has An Interesting Curriculum As A Session Player Producer And Arranger For Numerous Successful Belgian Artists Such As Monza Hooverphonic Janez Detd Jan Leyers Etc. Including Production Credits For Stash's Number 1 Hit Single 'Sadness' And Is Currently Working On An English Project With Members Of Faithless And Groove Armada.. He Has A Strange Addiction For The Eighties And Enjoys Peeling Off The Skin Of The Little Parts Inside A Tangerine. It Took Him A Lot Of Persuasiveness To Get Jan Roelkens - Previously An Unscrupulous Civil Servant Who'd Slowly Kill His Neighbour's Dog With A Blunt Nail File In Order To Become Rich And Famous - To Sing On The Album. Roelkens Eventually Fell In Love With The Lyrics - All Sad Songs About Love And The Lack Of It - And The Poltrock Whisky Collection. He Enjoys Strange Marriages And Likes To Dress Up. Enter Diederik Luyckx Dedicated Bass Player And Movie Star Shares A Common Love For A Nice Melody And Has A Nice Way Of Whimsically Pivoting His Bass Lines Around Poltrock's Chord Progressions. Much To The Dislike Of Those Who Love A Bass That Goes 'boom - Boom - Pap - Boom - Boom - Pap' Diederik Loves Putting Stuff Up For Sale He Doesn't Even Own. The Three Team Up At Poltrock's Studio Name Themselves After A Famous Greek Actor Get In A Sentimental Mood And Start Working On The Raw Material That Is Already At Hand. Bit By Bit Savalas' Romantic Popsongs Are Taking Shape. As A Worthy Completion To Roelkens' Great Voice Savalas Tries To Avoid The Beaten Tracks By Using Atypical Sonic Textures Of A Sad Brass Quartet A Melodic String Section Vintage Keyboards And Weird Guitarscapes. Art Is Not What Savalas Is After Neither Is The Wish For Innovation. There's Only The Desire To Create A Simple Popsong And To Somehow Move Whoever's Listening Hopefully Convincing Them To Listen Time And Again. If Only This Music Can Bring About A Shiver A Smile A Tear Anger Lust Sadness Happiness...
