SKU
12-GLOBUSKH001
Legendary Czechoslovakian underground band who were jailed & banned many many times in their lifetime during the 70's and 80's, only to emerge triumphant when the wall fell and their old friend, Vaclav Havel, became President of the country! Originally recorded in 1978, this re-recording with many of the musicians who played on the album the first time (but, of course, missing the late Mlan Hlavsa, the leader of the band for over 25 years, and performed as a tribute to him). This recording adds the Agon Orch., a 20 piece ensemble, to flesh out the arrangements. A moving tribute.
