The album, engineered by John Holbrook, features guest artists Garth Hudson (The Band), Vince Welnick (Grateful Dead), Graham Maby (Joe Jackson), David Amram, Michael York, Martin Sheen and others.

In 1998 he collaborated on a compilation album with Bruce Springsteen, Leonard Cohen, Allen Ginsberg and others.[9]

In March 1999 Bach opened the Miss Universe pageant in Europe. He scored the Mladen Juran film Transatlantic (1998)[10] the Croatian entry for Best Foreign Film in the 1999 Academy Awards. Transatlantic had premiered the a year earlier in Croatian Film Festival in Pula where it won four Golden Arena Awards and was shown in the official program of the festival in Moscow in 1999, as well as in the official competition of the festival in Mar del Plata, and globally in other world class film festivals.[11] He has also scored many features and short films, including King of Cool, the biopic about the life of Steve McQueen which premiered on American Movie Classics (AMC) at 10:00 PM March 31, 1998.[12][13]
