"Russian guitarist Aleksander Rozhkov's CD White Russian consists of 10 instrumental compositions, which are united by a common idea - it is a fusion of Russian and Western music cultures with a mix of Oriental flavor without losing the power and energy of the rock sound. Russian folk instruments and musical traditions are fused here with classic rock guitar, and from time to time compete with each other in the virtuosity of performance. Such a fusion is the new word in world music. Rozhkov states, "First of all I wanted to express the integrity of the world, our community, our common roots in this album. That is why while recording White Russian I tried to push into the foreground the idea, and only after to think of the commercial success of the album". The CD also contains music compositions that are made in the traditional guitar art rock manner. White Russian will be interesting for those people who like such a masters of instrumental guitar art rock as Jeff Beck, Steve Vai and Joe Satriani. Instrumental Guitar (Electric (Heavy)/Hard Rock/Rock), total running time, 43:21" - Guitar9.com
