Its just too powerful to watch for long...like seeing heaven from afar but being unable to get there. The artistry, the man with the whistle, the 72 gauge cast lead guitar strings....surely the CCCP will rise again...
Stuff like that really blows my mind. When I hear such music from behind the "iron curtain", my whole impression of the soviet era totally changes. Before I came to know all that rare recordings from the USSR, like Melodiya Jazz Ensemble etc. I had a totally different picture of the USSR. Before my inner eye I saw people wearing grey clothes, being afraid to express their own views. Now - I´m really getting exceedingly curious how far freedom of thought and expression really went at that time.

I doubt about USSR - it's Ukrainian's clip. USSR can't rise without Ukraine.

02:25 also reminds me of Quincy Jones' "money runner" - minus clavinet.

Ends up sounding sneakily like Quincy Jones' "Money Runner". Still, very groovy. Great post.

The string part around 0:55 is straight from "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone." More Motown than Blaxploitation.

@Ferrosplav Да в видео клипе Софии нет. Песня с альбома Ротару 1974го года Лебединая Верность. В альбомной версии она поет на бэк-вокале.
