Album lore

Issued in August 1972 on WM Poland/WMI, Tadeusz Woźniak’s eponymous album occupies a measured niche within the poezja śpiewana tradition. The record’s thirteen tracks, including the frequently cited "Zegarmistrz światła," unfold with a restrained lyricism that privileges the Polish poetic voice. The instrumentation remains modest, allowing Woźniak’s delivery to articulate the emotional contours of his verse without excess.The album assembles moments such as "Smak i zapach pomarańczy" and "Ballada dla potęgowej," where the sparse arrangements frame the narrative with a contemplative air. It is a document of its era’s intimate singer-songwriter craft, notable less for flamboyance than for its careful attention to the melding of text and tune within the Polish poetic song lineage.
