Escape From The City Of Angels
was recorded at Namouche Studios
located in Lisbon, Portugal in 1995
and originally appeared on
Ithaka's debut album
Flowers And The Color Of Paint.

The album was nominated for
three Blitz Awards (the Portuguese
equivalent of the Grammy) in the
categories of: Best Album,
Best New Project and Best Male Vocalist.

And in an end-of-decade retrospective
of national music, the prestigious
newspaper Publico considered
Flowers And The Color Of Paint
to be one of the ten most influential
'Portuguese' albums of the 1990's.

In 1997,
acclaimed Hollywood director
Antoine Fuqua
used the song in the soundtrack
for his feature film
The Replacment Killers
[released by Columbia Pictures]
starring;
Mira Sorvino (academy award winner)
Chow Yun-fat (academy award nominee)
and several other known actors such as
Clifton Collins Jr. and Michael Rooker.

Because of difficulties in obtaining rights to
some of the other songs appearing in The
Replacement Killers, there was not an official
soundtrack release for the film.

The original pressing of
Flowers And The Color Of Paint
by Movieplay Records was only 1500 copies.
Ironically, despite the song's obvious cult
status with literally millions of illegal
downloads around the globe, the label
has never made a second issue of the album.

All licensing inquiries for
"Escape From The City Of Angels" by Ithaka
should be directed to North Music Group [USA]
