Thank you Trivimi, for these really interesting songs. As a fanatic of plucked instruments I especially enjoyed "Koni bespredela" and "Volki i vorony", and Boris has an expressive voice.

Again songs in English:
http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3/1990_RadioLondon/06_Can'tStopRepeatingYourName.mp3 Сan't Stop repeating Your Name
http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...TheGoodSon.mp3 Under the good Sun
http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...gelCalling.mp3 The Angel Calling. The beautiful song!
http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3..._UpInSmoke.mp3 Up In A Smoke

And certainly songs in Russian too. I like these songs:

http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3..._Africa/06.mp3 Рок-н-ролл мёртв (Rock-n-roll's Dead) It's already classic song of Russian rock music
http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...a_chaos/09.mp3 Северный цвет(Northern Color)
http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...serebra/01.mp3 Сидя на красивом холме (Sitting On A Beautiful Hill)

http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...ev/Track07.mp3 Истрибитель (Fighter)

http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3..._Africa/02.mp3 Captain Africa (from CD Radio Africa)
http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...a/07_track.mp3 Город (City) "Gorod" very popular song. In Russia almost all people know this song. (in the first post live version)

and specially for nikki: http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...d_of_light.mp3 "Mashina vremeni" and B. Grebenshikov sing the song of Mashina vremeni "In the round of Light"
IMHO: it's not the best song of Mashina vremeni .

CD "Radio Silence" mp3 all songs and more... http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...io_silence.htm
If the first link of this post don't work, then other way: http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...dio_london.htm mp3-all songs CD "Radio London" in English. There there is the song Can`t stop repeating your name whish I recommend to download.

I have not posted in previous posts the link on the site of "Aquarium" in English. Official site of group "Aquarium" : http://www.aquarium-web.com/en/news/index.htm There is мр3 on this site "Zoom, zoom, zoom" - song in style Reggae.

In the song " Northern Color " it is possible to hear the rare instrument. It's Armenian musical instrument - Duduk. I know one example when the well-known in the world musician used duduk. Paul McCartney used duduk in song 'Jenny Wrenn' in 2005. "Aquarium" has made it in 2002.

These Russian ballads sound extremely close to the so-called "resistance" Greek music of the 1960's of the 1970's. I bet the lyrics are not political at all but coming from Russia I can see a similarlity. The feeling is exactly the same. But how old are these songs?

The American songs are also wonderful, although different.

The interesting note.

These songs are taken from albums which have appeared in different years:

Радио Африка (Radio Africa) - 1983
День Серебра (The Day of Silver) - 1984
Русский альбом (Russian album) - 1991
Kostroma mon Amour - 1994
Навигатор (The Navigator) - 1995
Снежный лев (A snow lion) - 1996
Сестра Хаос (Sister Chaos) - 2002

The list of all albums of "Aquarium" in English and info here: http://www.aquarium-web.com/en/albums/index.htm
"Aquarium" has many albums. Some albums are excellent works, others - empty and uninteresting . The last CD was released in 2006.
The interesting fact: Mick Taylor was the musician on two tracks in an album "Navigator"-95. (In the beginning 70's Mick Tayler was the participant of "The Rolling Stones ") info here: http://www.aquarium-web.com/en/albums/index.htm

Two more songs:
http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...um/Track10.mp3 Burlak
http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...ev/Track03.mp3 Maxim the forester
It's not ballads. These are very energetic things. And two more songs:
http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...11%20Track.mp3 Garson №2
http://aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3...03%20Track.mp3 The Graveyard

Thanks Тривими !
I just found out about this guy a few days ago, when I dloaded this 80s Rick-Springfield-like pop-rock number called Radio Silence. And I couldn't believe a Russian made it. In 1989 even! Then I dloaded the whole album and I really love it. I'll dload songs you posted as well! Thanks again!

This guy is really cool from what I've heard so far.

Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

Am now downloading more songs ! Thanks, Тривими . I'm sure I can hear a sitar in Лётчик, so there is an Indian influence there as well. Some of the earlier songs you posted have a Beatles feel to them too eg. Fields of my love.

Anyway, I'm really enjoying listening to them.

it`s true - sitar and tablas.

Marc Almond sings the song of Б.Г. (B. Grebenshikov): http://dl.zvuki.ru/3/0150/mp3/3.mp3 Gosudaryunia (Marc Almond with "Aquarium" group)
This track from CD "Heart on snow" (M. Almond sing the Russian songs)

May favourite songs now: http://slil.ru/22814860 Белая (White) to dload press left button and then OK, and http://dl.zvuki.ru/2/3584/mp3/1.mp3 Феечка (Pixie) It should enter in "easy and light songs" which I has placed recently. But only today I have found the links. The Leg of Destiny as sing B.G.

Oh wow, I've been a fan of Marc Almond for many years - I really enjoyed hearing Gosudaryunia . I know he performed with Alla Bayanova in Moscow in April.

Again, a big thankyou

What impressions about Armenian national instrument Duduk in the song «Северный цвет» ("Northern color")? Which I posted earlier.
Can is pleasant this song if not to understand in Russian? I think this song and duduk -wonderful.

I really like the sound of the duduk. Северный цвет is a wonderful song. Is this instrument or something similar used in Middle Eastern countries ?

http://slil.ru/22814860 doesn't work for me at the moment. Most of your other links work well though. It has taken me a little longer to download tracks because I've got net connection problems right now.

I think maybe there are instruments with a similar sound. But this concurrence not 100 %. Therefore duduk the original instrument. Armenian musician Dzhivan Gasparyan does solo performances in the different countries. He plays on duduk and he has taken part in record of song Северный цвет (Northern color). Once, on TV, I have seen the performance "Aquarium" + Dzhivan Gasparyan.
If you liked this sound I can recommend to listen Paul McCartney with "Jenny Wrenn".
