L. Burnside, Junior Kimbrough nebo T-Model Ford. Nahrávání alba probíhalo v roubené horské chalupě a kapela si k němu pozvala varhaníka Omera Blentiće hrajícího na hammondky. Tím je nahrávka zvukově i hudebně barevnější, protože Omer je muzikant nejen technicky, ale i výrazově kreativní a vnímavý. Honza Švihálek se letos s kapelou vydal na bluesmanskou pouť přímo do oblasti, ve které jeho oblíbená hudba stále žije v podstatě folklorním způsobem, přímo do severního Mississippi. Díky kontaktům z loňského festivalu Blues Alive, si zahráli s tamními hudebníky RL Boycem, Kennym Brownem a dalšími muzikanty a pořídili další originální nahrávky.

What do your colleagues, spouse and kids have in common with a five-ton killer whale? This work explains that both whales and people perform better when you accentuate the positive. It shows how using the techniques of animal trainers - specifically those responsible for the killer whales of SeaWorld - can supercharge your effectiveness at work and at home. It explains the difference between ''GOTcha'' (catching people doing things wrong) and ''Whale Done!'' (catching people doing things right).A management classic from the author of the multi-million-copy bestseller THE ONE MINUTE MANAGER.
