There are two editions with different track listings (the original Polish album is listed as "AMJ+PM"; the recent international reissue is "PM+AMJ" The opening track of both editions is a traditional Polish song played on the Pikasso and for me is the highlight of the album. I saw her live in Poland with Richard Bona, Mino Cinelu and Dhafer Youssef a couple of years ago, which was a great show. Check out the album ID which they (and other names you will know) appear on, and the live album Jo & Co., partly recorded at the show I saw :)

Pat has a lot of fans in Poland and I’m sure he knew exactly how to arrange his style to sync with her vocals. I love to listen to this one when I’m quietly reflective.

Not distinctive, not passionate, not memorable. Just clean, proficient and technical. Don’t know why Pat did this one. But then he has form working with blue-eyed songstresses (viz Silje collaboration). Obviously this vocal style interests him.
mugsy May 03 2011 at 4:11 PM	Honestly? Yeah! I like follow-me on this CD. I actually like the whole CD pretty much. I love their version of Are You Going With Me. This is probably my favorite on the CD.
PeeWee May 03 2011 at 9:12 AM	Follow Me? Not so much...but the real gem of the record IMO is "Tell Her You Saw Me.."
fendweller May 03 2011 at 3:52 AM	Can anyone honestly say they like the version of Follow Me on this record?
transcendentman May 02 2011 at 7:04 PM	man the version of areugoing with me with all the rythmic stuff going on is incredible, i would like to know also if they have posters of her!!!
bluepno May 02 2011 at 1:59 PM	I really enjoy this one. Anna Maria does a fine Basia/Sade kind of thing...then this guitar player starts playing the solos and the songs just lift off.
