Recently , going through my recordings, i have came across one of my earliest performances with Alik Alabin. It was recorded at club ZUS in Long Island ( New York ) on March 6th , 2010. At the time, i did not know how to play guitar and was excited to have Alik playing such beautiful , sophisticated harmonies for the songs we both loved. I never heard the names of Elis Regina, Maria Creuza ,Gal Costa and many more until after Alik generously downloaded 64GB of Brazilian Music on my computer. I feel very grateful for all the influence, education and support I received from the start.
