A rare original of the iconic guitarist.Alexander Sergeyevich Lyapin (born June 1, 1956, Leningrad) is a Soviet and Russian musician, virtuoso guitarist. In 2013, he emigrated to the United States  In the late 70s, life forced Lyapin to go on the professional stage, where he played in several VIA, toured a lot in the most remote corners of the country, but in January 1982 he returned to rock and roll as the guitarist of "Aquarium" and quickly became an integral part of their sound palette and stage show. The band's repertoire includes several of his instrumental pieces. The famous blues "Cold Beer", a version of the song by Boris Grebenshchikov and the future "mitka" Vladimir Shinkarev, interpreted by Alexander based on the music of Jimi Hendrix, for a long time became a real calling card of the guitarist. In 1988-1990, "EXPERIMENTS" regularly performed in St. Petersburg halls, while Lyapin himself simultaneously recorded with Yuri Morozov, and played with "DDT". In general, Lyapin's collaboration with DDT has always been distinguished by originality: the guitarist was not in the permanent composition of the group, but took part in its work if he was interested in a particular program of the group. Since 1988 — he has been a regular member of Sergey Kuryokhin's POP MECHANICS, with which he played until Kuryokhin's death in July 1996. He was a permanent creative partner of Sergey, engaged in the Rock sector of the project, from the experience of working with which the now existing "ROCKMECHANIKA" grew. At the end of 1990, Lyapin, who had just returned from a long trip to the United States, organized a new group "Turkish Tea", in which the cellist Vsevolod Gakkel (ex-" Aquarium") and the drummer Alexander Yemelyanov (ex-" Gezy","Resurrection") played. The group began to give concerts, performed at the Tenth Anniversary of the Leningrad Rock Club (March 1991), changed its composition a couple of times and disbanded by the summer of the same year. Meanwhile, in February 1991, Lyapin unexpectedly appeared with "Aquarium" on the stage of the Palace of Youth, and a month later took part in the sensational Last Concert of the group during the same Decade of the Leningrad Rock Club in the DS  In August 1991, at the Leningrad Recording Studio, Yuri Morozov finished almost two years of work on Lyapin's album "Anasha", in the recording of which the musicians" DDT", the famous jazz saxophonist Mikhail Kosciushkin and the sisters Marina and Tatiana Kapuro took part. ...more
