But the real beginning was the song "Drogi" which appeared two years later on "Part One". It was Gutek's first album and Banach's tenth but in many ways his first as he recorded it in a way he had never before.
In 2002 a decision about making the second record was made. The first meeting after couple of years took place in much nicer surroundings - somewhere half way between Szczecin and Koszalin in the attic of the house, boarding with the forest, first song for the new album - "Mental Revolution" was born. Later "The Sign" and "The Sun" were polished although Banach got the idea for those two while in Greece.
It's a very cosmopolitan record - two Poles under Spanish-sounding name, recording Jamaican music, ideas of which were first born in France, Greece and Japan. Even if we try to place Indios Bravos' music somewhere in Poland it proofs to be very difficult. Gutek was born, grew-up and lives in Katowice. Banach on the other hand is from Szczecin and lives in Warsaw. Szczecin is also home of the musicians who make Indios Bravos - the live band because from October 2002 Indios Bravos is not just a studio project but a full band set.
The first gig was very humble. Gutek and Banach were supported on stage by Pawel Gawronski (keboard and backing vocals) and Krzysztof Sak (guitar). Later the band expanded and was joined by Ryszard Labul (bass), Przemek Filipkowski (keyboard) and Tomek Kubik (drums).
Treat Me Right
Indios Bravos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Treat me right don't treat me wrong
I don't ask for nothin' more
'Cause I'm suffering when you leave me out on the open sea
When you turn back on me back on me
So treat me, treat me good
'Cause my heart is burning
I guess you don' care 'cause there is no clue
From you to tell me what to do
Make me laugh make me cry
Let me think everythin' is all right
Count on me I'll count on you
I don' think it's hard to do
Cause I'm suffering when you leave me out on the open sea
When you turn back on me back on me
So treat me, treat me good
'Cause my heart is burning
I'm ready to do anything now for you
I guess you don't care 'cause there is no clue
From you to tell me what to do
