How do you reckon the reason I called the piece “Stuffbox”?
And I feel a bit of confusion about did it this way. 3 or 4 notes at the beginning of the intro, middle part and coda are close to a few guitar notes from the song “A pack of cigarettes” by the group “Kino”. I didn`t notice it in the beginning. I didn`t even think about “Kino”. And I hadn`t been a fan of this group ever. Had I noticed those similar notes before record, I would`ve changed them to another. But whatever, these compositions are quite different, even their styles are different.
So, “A pack of cigarettes” by “Kino” (Great song, of course)

And my “Stuffbox”. Turn to the second song:

Okay. What is associated with cigarettes? Tobacco, snuffbox, etc. So, I chose a snuffbox, rewrote it in a stuffbox. It’s just a simple pun. But I didn`t know that it`s quite common in English. I should have typed this word in a search engine to see whether it appears in the wilds of the Internet. And it really does. You might know about sites, called this name. I would have given another name to it, had I known about these sites before. I should have called it somehow romantically, as this piece actually requests. And…mmm…I don`t advertise those sites
. Huh.

Listen to new album “Stuffbox”
Catalogue professionnel de musique libreIN ENGLISH:
There are two instrumental pieces with male vocalis in this album.
Popsa Nova is a piece in bossanova style, which includes my improvizations on harmonica, electric guitar and nylon string guitar.
Stuffbox is a bluesy piece with a little bit jazz character.
These two pieces are very easy for perception and listening, as it seems to me. So, you may listen to them for relaxing.
Recorded and mixed at home

НА РУССКОМ:
В этом альбоме представлены две инструментальные пьесы с мужским вокализом.
Popsa Nova – это пьеса в стиле боссанова, которая включает в себя мои импровизации на губной гармонике, электрогитаре и гитаре с нейлоновыми струнами.
Stuffbox является околоблюзовой пьесой с добавлением совсем небольшой доли джаза.
Эти пьесы очень легки для восприятия, как по мне. Так что Вы можете слушать их для расслабления.
