The rock band officially ceased to be parasites, the opportunity to give concerts without fear of criminal prosecution in the country, a wave's craziest festivals. Youth gone wild. Unimaginable dressed teenagers poured out of secret basements to the streets.
The Moscow photographer Igor Mukhin was in the midst of the revelry. He went mad from Pink Floyd and "time Machine" in the 70's, so knew what and where to photograph when the texture flowed a turbulent river. Then he released the photo book "I saw rock' n 'roll", which included one hundred and fifty pictures, 1985-1991, depicting the heyday of Russian rock.
In the description of the book States that it is in any case not the walk of fame rock heroes.
"I saw the rock-n-roll" is an intense, raw slice of the era, with bright accents and half and it is still more curious details and nuances.
