'Jaakko Eino Kalevi is a real person. His search for food, clothing, shelter and love is real too. Only the casually intense manner of a searcher is unreal. Defining the real Jaakko Eino Kalevi is like counting four winds ... but seeing none. The awesome geographical scope of search in terms of miles, months, moods, moments and memories adds up to a staggering set of statistics that are hard to believe ... but none the less valid and real as the search and the searcher. Ironically there is no way to timetable that exact explosion and spark igniting the wildfire quest of Jaakko Eino Kalevi, a Jyväskylä Cat born to be a musical renegade who breathes and breeds the sound of the world ... not the sound of a town. This search caught fire in his soul somewhere between the moments his mother, Anna-Maija Savolainen, gave birth to her only son and that unknown moment when Jaakko Eino Kalevi, the manchild, took that first step out of the home and bolted into the wilderness where he suddenly stood all alone ... naked, hungry, unsheltered and unloved. And so it began, The search. The search born of need. This album is the words and music of Jaakko Eino Kalevi in the search of food, clothing, shelter and love.'
