Luba Dvorak \" Parts for Sale\" \"It seems to me I\'m always one record ahead of myself. When I finish making one I already have an idea what the next one will be like. I had a bunch of songs that didn\'t fit the band and after my solo acoustic tour of Europe in the winter of 2001, I realized that I needed to make a record like \"Parts for Sale.\" These songs were mostly written on the road somewhere between Vancouver, Amsterdam, Prague, Las Vegas and LA. I did a lot of touring last year and we recorded these songs in between tours at home in Vancouver. This was the first recording I\'ve done that\'s all live-off-the-floor and will only record that way from now on. Everybody just got together at the studio in Vancouver, Allan (producer) threw up some mic\'s and pressed the record button. Kenny Aronoff (Mellencamp, Bob Dylan) played drums on half of it and as usual it was unreal to work with him again.He really makes you play better. It was also great to have Dave Reimer, Robbie Steininger, Pete Baroni, Scott Smith and Mike Norman along.... Thanx Guys! - Luba, May 2003. Luba Dvorak was born in Brno, Czech Republic. The son of a blacksmith father and factory-working mother immigrated with his parents and brother to Canada at the age of seven, after spending a year in Austria. Music was always in the family, Luba\'s father was a well respected musician in the Czech Republic, and a few steps down the family tree will show that Luba is a descendent of the famous composer Antonin Dvorak. \"I remember as a kid going on many camping trips with my family. My dad would play bluegrass and country tapes in the van and I guess I soaked those things up, and couldn\'t help but be influenced by them. The first concert my dad took me to was Willie Nelson & Family so that explains a lot\" \"Parts for Sale\" was self released in May 2003 to great critical praise and has kept Luba busy. He\'s begun work on his next project and is currently living in New York City working on his next release scheduled for this fall.
