A cute dog howling inside a big red car. Shooted 17.09.2009 (14:04) as a test of my new Sony Ericsson G502.

A humourous portrait of Czech president Václav Klaus with a beautiful song from the '50s. I did it just before Christmas 2008 and published on CZcams for a while, but decided to upload a newer version in spring with a few better photos. Enjoy the Christmas chill again with brilliant Elvis Presley and some pictures from the web. Note: this video is not a political satire in any way. The soundtra...

Free jazz at its best 40 years ago. Keith Jarret on Petrof concert piano, Jack de Johnette on drums and Ron McClure on bass in Prague. The short video was taken from Czech TV. I added the opening title and equalized the sound.

Something strange happened at the beginning of Thursday public live recording show of Czech Radio Big Band, conducted by Václav Kozel. Maybe because of 13th, but not Friday. Who knows? The saxophonist and his heavy instrument were surprised more than the audience. Shooted with Panasonic NV-GS75 and built-in stereo mic.

My favorite song from Prague alternative group Dvouletá Fáma (Biennial Rumor) with words written by Petr Knotek, recorded 1983. The lead vocal belongs to drummer Zdeněk Konopásek. Dvouletá Fáma was playing eclectic mix of polyrhytmic jazz-rock passages with ringing guitar, The Police-like rhytm lines and crazy vocals. I supported them with new instruments (you can hear my Kawai neck-thru-body g...

One of the first songs from Prague punk rock group Garáž (The Garage) from early eighties (recorded in original formation). The Garage 1981 were Karel Habal (voc), Tomáš Volák (voc), Josef Vondrášek (g,voc), Ivan Cifrinec (g,sax), Ivo Pospíšil (bg) and Zdeněk Smetana (ds). This video was taken from Czech documentary serial Bigbít.

Talented Czech jazz singer Ondřej Ruml sings this great song made famous by Frank Sinatra at Studio A with Czech Radio Big Band conducted by Václav Kozel. Shooted on public live recording Thursday night 11.05.2007 by Martin Marky Hochmann with his Sony DCR-HC 17 E. I did the video effects and cleaned the sound, which was picked by built-in stereo mic in the camcorder. Lyrics: Chicago, Chicago t...

Pretty rough and depressive song from Prague new wave group Ineptus, founded in the early eighties by Luděk Vejvoda (organ, guitar, vocal, ex-Zikkurat). His bandmates were Pavel Cingl (vocal, guitar, now violinist with Phil Shoenfelt), Jiří Rolník (bass) and drummer Alan Krob (ex-Zikkurat). The video was taken from Czech movie "Evo, vdej se!" (1983), which has not been released on DVD. There is...

Very nice example of early sixties Czech rock 'n' roll revival, shooted in Prague. As you can see, Pavel Bobek sings this Buddy Holly classic song into the Neumann UM-57 mic. This short video is remastered from Czech TV documentary serial Bigbít. The clip was playing a little faster. I only changed the key to original Bb from B, the time stretch effect remains unchanged.

One of the best Sex Pistols songs. Cover version from Prague punk band Zikkurat. Shooted 8th of April 2007 at XT3 club in Prague. The camera was vainly crying for more light.

Greatest punk classic from The Damned. We were playing it from 1979 to 1982 and again since 2005. It´s my heart tune. Shooted on Easter Sunday at XT3 club in Prague. The stage was really dark all the time.

Mythical person of Czech mountains, the Krakonoš, was speaking after we did our show at summer rock festival Trutnov Open Air 2006. Shooted by Martin Marky Hochmann who was taking the concert video for DVD.

Instrumental studio recording from our unreleased album. Moving pictures were taken from another songs at Lucerna Big Hall, Prague, 13.11.1990. We were playing at the first place in program for Prague underground fans. This very rare video shows concentration on every note. The Hard Song was the last one, but the operator unfortunately missed most of our soft rock tunes and did only a few shots...

Slow version of classic song from The Ramones, performed by Prague punk band Zikkurat. Shooted at KC Rakovník 06.03.2007.
