MUNGO JERRY-YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE IN THE ARMY-1971-FIRST PRESS-UK-DAWN-DNLS-3028. A very rare British original of the cult band..The third album of the wonderful Mungo Jerry, on which they continue to be in the framework of a jagband band that is branded for them. I don't think that, in comparison with the first two, the material here sags much more often, in general, this record is designed absolutely in the same stylistic spirit: pipes and kazoos, washing boards, unpretentious jagband and blues motifs. The peculiarity of such Mungo Jerry in general, and this album in particular, is that with all the buzz, relaxation and non-tension, at some point all this begins to have the opposite effect. The highlight of the album is the beautiful, bright, tenacious and generally one of the best things Mungo Jerry "You Don't Have To Be In The Army To Fight In The War", without which you can not do anything.    ...more

ZERO-A SONG ABOUT UNREQUITED LOVE FOR THE MOTHERLAND-1991-FIRST PRESS OF RUSSIA-FEELEE-FL3-004.  A rare original of the cult album. "Song of unrequited love for the Motherland" is the fourth album of the band "Zero", released in 1991. It is considered the best creation of the group, it contains all the main hits for the entire period of creativity: "Russian rock 'n' Roll", "I'm walking, smoking", "Man and Cat", "Song about a real Indian", "Trams were driving down the street", "Lenin Street" ... Almost all songs, except the title instrumental, were included in radio rotation, most remain on the air until now pore. And this is the only album of the classical period, songs from which are generally heard on the radio, except for informal and unofficial Internet stations. At the same time, "Song about ..." is not an electric album, but an acoustic one; in full—fledged electricity, with percussion and weighted sound, only one song is made here — "You're a brake". Since the release of this record, and in many ways thanks to it, the group "Zero" has entered the so-called "first echelon" of Russian rock, becoming one of the leaders of Russian rock music. And it was from this time, ironically, that the decline of the collective began. The musicians began to abuse alcohol and drugs, which led to the well-known tragic events in the biography of Fyodor Chistyakov, who found himself in a psychiatric hospital. In addition, creative differences between the musicians played a role, and this led to a temporary split in the composition. After all these twists and turns, the band was unable to consolidate its success in subsequent albums, but the CD "Song of Unrequited Love for the Motherland" still remains one of the strongest and most influential works in Russian rock music, and "Zero" is one of the main groups of Russian rock. ...more
