Dissants of the Soviet stage

The Soviet government, piling ridiculous censorship prohibitions, limiting the rights of a national basis, suspecting an attempt on her authority in every word and in every note, thereby made many representatives of the creative professions of dissidents. The rejection of total control, prohibitions and oppression, the search for freedom of expression pushed the heroes of this book to a difficult solution - emigration. Hence the name of the book, because the word "dissident" in translation from Latin means "disagreement".
This book about those Soviet artists who, finding themselves in the West, remained faithful to the pop genre, and did not sang, like some of their colleagues, songs "for Odessa Mam". However, despite the fact that their repertoire remained neutral and did not contain any anti -Soviet orientation, the fact of emigration turned them in the eyes of the Soviet authorities into enemies, traitors and renegades. This book says about how the life of yesterday"s idols in the West says.
She is not only about those artists who to this day remain the favorites of the listeners, but also about the less known. Emigrants are real and internal, "defeators" and "Returners": Mikhail Alexandrovich, Jean Tatlyan, Eddie Resert, Larisa Mondrus, Valery Obodzinsky, Eduard Hil, Vadim Mulerman, Jeanne Aguzarov and many others
