Lebethina

A detective and a journalist in the Soviet hinterland investigate petty crimes and sometimes find themselves in comical situations. These two characters are created from my nostalgia for my home and childhood, when I loved watching investigative programs and running around my urban village. The era in which they live has no clear boundaries, I just see something warm and dear in the time in which my parents spent their childhood and youth.

Happy birthday!

Although I feel like I'm a little late, here's a present for you and an interesting fact about why this isn't a regular record.

And it's just that associations arose in my head with Elena Voinarovskaya's song "Soft Blue Records" and a desire to share something interesting. It is very interesting to observe the differences of cultures in different countries at the same time.

In the Soviet Union, there used to be magazine "Кругозор" that provided soft music records. There was mostly music by Soviet performers, and sometimes just stories about something, such as radio broadcasts. But almost every issue always contained one or two hits by Western popular performers, which otherwise would have been difficult to listen to somewhere in the 70s.

"Music on the ribs"

It was possible to record music on x-rays, which was cheaper than buying real records from speculators, which, moreover, were also banned at that time. And also this "records" were used by Soviet musicians for self-publishing of songs. This is how rock spread at that time.

Вброс, что бы хоть что-то здесь было, не более.
