Group
named Foxtrott is still undiscovering one. No records of Foxtrott
get into show business machine. All works have done in South Ukraine sunbaked
land. Foxtrott’s songs might have been heard from stages of Kherson, Odessa,
Nikolayev e.t.c. Let’s back to the beginning. It was 1987. Five men were
destined to meet & create some heavy bluesy crew (little bit progressive
yet ). Some of them were educated in musical college, somebody was
bring up in jailhouse (some grass, you know) but everybody felt like
Big Time is gonna come’’. Band was named ‘’Forgotten’’ (in pazitist
mood). Each former’s took a bank credit (5000 USSR rub.) & the band
has left for Moskow.You know, all the roads led to Moskow then. Guys knew
it well:Moskow’s waiting for the heavy guitar cords.
Two months were wasted in capitol of USSR. In vain. (We always remember Baykonoor cinema & Moby Dick group. I send you my ‘’hello’’ Andrew Antonov). Why in vain? Because Of non-commercial kind of music (& they was tellin’ me…). Guys have run out of money. Coming winter promised none. Stop. Back to UA. Back home. Name was changed to Foxtrott (a joke) Youpzi Ono’s left for tourist riverboat. GREAT BULLSHIT TIME. As all the Great it stretches for long term (whole decade) it never get into Foxtrott’s machine, yet it always been waving around, washing people out from the desk. They were in stuff of ‘’Foxtrott’s & they left for another business. Micada, Jenya Mosin, Struyk, Valyok Yakimenko, Gene Grimov. Biggest events of last decade: -
1991: interchance festival (Kyiv) The
latest stuff of ‘’Foxtrott’’ has made 1999’s issue- Now Band’s working in nightclubs & pubs. What
tomorrow is gonna bring? |
