Yanni – Niki Nana

Niki Nana is the fifth studio album by Greek keyboardist and composer Yanni, released on August 24, 1989 by Private Music. Produced by Yanni and Peter Baumann, the album marked a shift from the orchestral, synthesized-string sound of his earlier records toward more rock-oriented arrangements, drawing on Yanni's early career playing in rock bands. The album features drummer and percussionist Charlie Adams throughout, with a horn section including Dan Higgins on saxophone, Bill Reichenbach on trombone, and Gary Grant and Jerry Hey on trumpet appearing on select tracks. Highlights include the title track Niki Nana (We're One), the rhythm-driven Dance with a Stranger, and the extended closer Nightbird. Total running time is approximately 40 minutes.
