The Electric Flag was one of the premiere rock bands of the 60s, with a line-up of legendary musicians. Led by the virtuoso Mike Bloomfield, the stellar lineup of musicians included Buddy Miles, Nick Gravenites, Barry Goldberg, Elvin Bishop. These live performances were captured at the height of the band's power, in 1967 at the Whisky A Go-Go, LA and 1968 at the Carousel Ballroom, San Francisco. They burned brightly for two years and then egos ripped the group apart. The Whisky performance took place just one week after they opened for Cream at the Fillmore West. The Carousel Ballroom show is comprised of the best performances from the 4 shows they did that night.

Vibraciones de Mexico was conceived by El Mexico que Queremos to show the music of Mexico in all it's variety of styles and facets and with the conviction that the value of Mexican music lies not only in the compositions by acclaimed masters from the past, but also in performances by brilliant young musicians of today. This was recorded in homage to the Mexican music of the twentieth century. Among the interpreters in the recording is Dana Zemtsov, a Europe-based Mexican young woman of Russian descent and outstanding talent. Dana plays along with four exceptional musicians from Russia Irina Shishkina, Sergei Gorbenko, Vladimir Sagaydo, and Mikhail Zemtsov. These musicians play compositions by Manuel M. Ponce, Carlos Chavez, Luis Sandi, Jose Pablo Moncayo, Silvestre Revueltas, and Alfredo Antunez.
