The True History of Russian Rock

“The Real Story of Russian Rock” is a collection of stories by Joanna Stingray, an American singer, actress, music producer, and public figure. Thousands of photographs, hundreds of hours of video recording: concerts, rehearsals, interviews with musicians and artists, producers, journalists, and photographers who defined this time—the “golden” period of Russian Rock and art-underground. “Aquarium,” “KINO,” “Strange Games,” “Alice,” “Pop-Mekhanika,” “Auction,” “Object of Mockery,” “New Composers,” the group “New Artists” (Timur Novikov, Oleg Kotelnikov, Sergey Bugaev “Africa,” Andrey Krisanov, Evgeny “Yufa” Yufit) and many others. Each new chapter reflects Joanna Stingray’s next visit to Russia. The listener gets acquainted with the history of Russian rock in the same order Joanna did. The audiobook includes only part of the priceless materials related to her stay in Russia in the late 1980s. All materials are published for the first time.
