ʻO kahi hiʻohiʻona kūʻokoʻa ma ka pae ʻEulopa Hikina kahi hui i kapa ʻia ʻo Blues League. Ma 2019, hoʻolauleʻa kēia hui hanohano i kāna makahiki XNUMXth.
Hoʻopili piha ʻia kona mōʻaukala me ka hana, ke ola o kekahi o nā leo leo maikaʻi loa o ka ʻāina o ka Soviets a me Russia - Nikolai Arutyunov.
Nā ʻelele Blues ma kahi ʻāina ʻole blues
ʻAʻole makemake ko mākou poʻe i ka polū. Akā i loko o ka papa inoa o nā ʻano kaulana, ʻaʻole ia e noho i kahi kūlana kiʻekiʻe. No laila, ʻo nā mea hoʻokani pila o ka home e hoʻoholo ana e hele i ke kahua a hoʻopaʻa i nā mea i kēia ʻano a i ʻole e pili ana iā ia, e hoʻopaʻi ʻia i kahi kuhihewa maʻalahi o ka lehulehu a me nā pilikia i kā lākou ʻoihana.
Eia nō naʻe, aia kekahi poʻe hoihoi e hoʻāʻo e haʻi i ko lākou ʻike ʻana i ka nani blues i ka mea hoʻolohe. Hiki ke kapa ʻia ʻo Arutyunov kekahi o lākou me ka hilinaʻi piha.
Ua hopohopoʻo Nikolai i ka hoʻokumuʻiaʻana o kahi hui blues i ka USSR i ka waena o nā makahiki he kanahiku, akā,ʻaʻole i maʻalahi nā mea a pau. I ka pau ana o na makahiki he umi i ko ai kona moeuhane.
No ke aha i hana koke ʻole ai? ʻOiai ua ʻike ʻo Nikolai iā ia iho i ka pilikia: kokoke i kāna mau mea hoʻokani pila maʻamau i moeʻuhane e lilo i Beatles, a ʻo ia iho i moeʻuhane e lilo i Rolling Stone. Ua pau koke ka ʻike mele a me ka blues mua o Kolya. Ua hana ʻia ka lua o ka hoʻāʻo ʻana i ka makahiki 79, a ua lanakila wale.
Ma waho aʻe o ka "mea hana manaʻo" Arutyunov, ʻo ka laina mua i komo i nā hoa like me ka mea hoʻokani pila ʻo Sergei Voronov (ka mea nāna i hana i ka hoʻomana CrossroadZ), bassist Andrei Sverchevsky a me Andrei Yarin.
Ua lilo ke keʻena hui ma kekahi o nā keʻena noiʻi ʻaila a me ke kinoea i kahua hoʻomaʻamaʻa no nā ʻōpio. Ua ʻae mākou no ka manawa kūpono e hoʻokani mele ma laila, e uku ka hui me nā ʻahamele ma nā "lā ʻulaʻula" i ka kalena. ʻO ia kā lākou i hoʻoholo ai.
E ʻimi i ka haku mele mua o ka Hui Blues
ʻAʻole i lōʻihi ka ikaika a me ka hoʻoikaika ʻana o kekahi mau lālā o ka hui. Inā he liʻiliʻi ka hoʻopiʻi a ka mea hoʻokani pahu, a laila hoʻokani pololei ka mea hoʻokani pila.
Eia kekahi, ma kekahi o nā ʻaha mele no nā limahana o ka ʻimi noiʻi, aia kahi hōʻino i ka wā i hoʻokau ai kekahi o nā mea nānā tipsy iā ia iho i ke kahua a haʻi i ka ʻōlelo mōʻaukala: "He aha kāu e pāʻani nei iā Bach no mākou ma aneʻi?".
Ma hope koke iho, ha'alele ka hui iā Sverchevsky, a ma hope iki aku, a me Voronov. Ua loaʻa ko lākou mea pani ma ke ʻano o Mikhail Savkin a me Boris Bulkin, ua loli kekahi mau bassists i ka manawa hoʻokahi.
I ka hiki ʻana mai o ka manawa e hoʻokaʻawale ai me ke keʻena noiʻi hoʻokipa, ʻaʻole i hoʻokomo ʻia ka papa mele o ka hui i nā uhi ʻulaʻula wale nō, akā kekahi o kā lākou mau ukana hana mai ka Beatles, ELO, Uriah Heep a me nā hui kaulana ʻē aʻe. Akā naʻe, ua makemake nui ka poʻe e lohe i nā mele ma kā lākou ʻōlelo ponoʻī, ʻaʻole i loaʻa i nā kāne a pono wale nō.
I ka makahiki 81, hele mai ka pahu pahu Alexei Kotov i ka hui i nā mea pāʻani Soviet blues me kāna pahu pahu ponoʻī. ʻO ia hoʻi, e like me Nikolai, mahalo nui i ka mele o ka Rolling Stones.
I ka makahiki 1982, ua hoʻopili ʻia nā kāne i ke kikowaena leʻaleʻa o ka mea kanu ʻo Kalibr a no ʻehā mau makahiki i hana maikaʻi ai lākou ma lalo o ka mana o ka Coliseum Youth Club of Contemporary Music.
ʻO kēia ke ʻano o ke ʻano a me ka ʻenehana o ka hui, ua hoʻopiha ʻia ka repertoire i nā mea like ʻole, akā ʻaʻole naʻe i ka uliuli. Me ka inoa, pono e hana ikaika, ʻaʻole i hāʻawi ʻia nā koho. Akā ua noho lākou ma ka "Major League of Blues" (i ka wā lōʻihi, ua nalowale ka ʻōlelo i ka inoa).
I ka makahiki 1986, ʻo ka album magnetic debut, i hui pū ʻia me ka inoa o ka hui. Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo ia i kahi trio ʻo Arutyunov, Savkin a me Kotov. Ma ke ala, ua lawe ʻo Misha i nā ʻāpana guitar a pau.
Hoʻokumu ʻia o ka hui Blues League
I hoʻokahi makahiki ma hope mai, loaʻa ka "League" i ke kūlana o kahi hui ʻoihana a hoʻololi i kāna haku. Hoʻi hou ʻo Sergei Voronov i kona poli, a lawe pū ʻo ia me ia i ka bassist Alexander Solich a me ka mea pahu pahu Sergei Grigoryan, kahi i hoʻololi koke ʻia e Yuri Rogozhin mai Dynamics. Eia kekahi, ʻo ka saxophonist ʻo Garik Eloyan, nāna i hoʻohui i nā hana o kahi keyboardist, hāʻawi iā lākou mai Yuri Antonov.
Me kēia haku mele, ua hoʻomaka ka hui i ka huakaʻi, me ka honua. Me nā ʻano uhi ʻōlelo Pelekania, ua hoʻomaka ka papahana o ka hui e hōʻike i kā lākou mau mele maikaʻi ma Lūkini: "Your Daughter", "Untie My Hands", "July Blues", etc.
I ka makahiki 89, ua komo ka Hui Pūʻulu Blues i kekahi mau hoʻokūkū (me ka ʻole o ke kani ʻana, akā naʻe): Steps to Parnassus, Intershans, Formula 9. ʻAʻohe mea i koe mai ka haku mele mua wale nō ʻo Arutyunov.
I kēlā manawa, ua hana mua ʻo Nikolai me ka mea hoʻokani pila ʻo Vladimir Dolgov, ka bassist Viktor Telnov, a me ka mea hoʻokani pahu Andrei Shatunovsky. Ma ka manawa like, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia kahi vinyl EP me nā mele ʻehā ma Melodiya.
"Dashing" Nineties Blues League
I nā makahiki he ʻumi e hiki mai ana, ua wehe ka League of Blues i kona mana piha. Ke kaulana nei ʻo ia ma ka ʻāina. A e loli mau ana kāna haku mele i ka manawa like. ʻEhia ka nui i hala ma waena o kahi hui o nā mea hoʻokani pila - hiki iā ʻoe ke huikau!
ʻO ka mea kupaianaha, i kēia manawa, hoʻomaka ʻo Arutyunov e kono i nā kaikamahine e hoʻihoʻi i nā leo. Ma waena o lākou ʻo ka mea mele ʻo Masha Katz, ʻo ia i ka makahiki 94, ma lalo o ka pseudonym Judith, ʻo ia ka mea mua mai ko mākou ʻāina e komo i Eurovision.
I ka makahiki 1991, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka debut LP LB ma lalo o ke poʻo inoa "Long Live Rhythm and Blues!", A i ka makahiki aʻe - he ʻaha mele ʻelua mai ka "Blues in Russia" festival.
I ka makahiki 1994, ua kono ʻia ka hui i ka Montreux Jazz Festival.
I kēia manawa i ka makahiki 1995, ua hoʻolauleʻa ka League of Blues i kāna 15th anniversary me ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i kahi disc hoihoi "He 15 mau makahiki anei" - pēlā e ʻōlelo ai, ma ke ʻano o kahi hōʻike e pili ana i ka hana i hana ʻia. Aia ka papa inoa i nā mele o ka hui mai nā makahiki like ʻole.
I ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka makahiki 1996, ua hui pū ka hui me ka moʻolelo mele honua ʻo BB King, a i ka pau ʻana o ka hōʻike ua hele pū lākou i ka BB King's House of Blues.
I ka makahiki 97, ua hoʻopaʻa ka hui i nā mea hou no kahi diski, akā naʻe, ʻaʻole i hoʻokuʻu ʻia. I ka makahiki 1998, ua puka mai kekahi pilikia. Hoemi nui i ka helu o na huakai.
ʻAʻole makemake e hāʻule i nā kūlana paʻakikī, ua hoʻokolohua ʻo Nikolai Arutyunov: me Dmitry Chetvergov, ke hana ʻia nei ka papahana "Arutyunov's Thursday".
Ma hope mai, i ka makahiki 60, ua ʻike ʻia kekahi mau hui ʻelua ʻo Harutyunov, e like me The Booze Band, Funky Soul, a ʻo Nikolai ponoʻī i hoʻāʻo i kona lima ma ka hoʻokūkū televise Voice + XNUMX a hiki i ka hopena.
