ALEXANDER LYAPIN (EX-DDT, AQUARIUM) - ANASHA-1992-FIRST PRESS LATVIA-RITONIS-8824. 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.

Acquiring the Taste is the second studio album by the British rock band Gentle Giant, released in 1971 by Vertigo Records. It was a departure from the blues and soul styles found on their self-titled debut. It was more experimental, more dissonant, and with more diverse instrumentation. In the sleeve text, the band made this famous statement:Our goal is to expand the boundaries of modern popular music, at the risk of being very unpopular. We wrote down each essay with one thought in mind-that it should be unique, adventurous and exciting. It took all of our combined musical and technical knowledge. From the outset we have abandoned all preconceived thoughts about the blatant commercialism. Instead, we hope to give you something much more substantial and fulfilling. All you have to do is sit back and get a taste. The album cover has some subtext in that it is made to look like a tongue licking the anus. However, when it's fully open, it's actually a tongue licking a peach. In 2005, it was included in Pitchfork's list of "the worst record covers of all time". ...more

ABBA-VOULEZ-VOUS-1979-THE FIRST PRESS OF SWEDEN-POLAR - POLS282.A rare Swedish original of the cult album. Voulez-Vous is the sixth studio album by Swedish pop band ABBA, released in 1979. The release is characterized by a large number of dance-oriented tracks, but it is wrong to define the genre of the album as exclusively "disco"; for example, the song "Does Your Mother Know" has quite definite rock motifs. The work on the album went on for more than a year, and during this time the participants had accumulated more material than what they managed to put on the album. Among the works of that period published much later, it is worth mentioning the composition Dream World, included as a bonus track on the 2010 reissue. In 1981, the album "Voulez-Vous" was released in the USSR by the company "Melody" and became the last numbered album "ABBA", released in the Soviet Union. The album, like the previous one, was a huge success, placing in the charts of all countries in the top ten. It became multi-platinum in just one year. ...more
