Its just me that loved (almost) everything from the former Yugoslavia?

They have quite remarcably well rated albums - in their genres almost among the best of PA, for example: Buldozer, Time, Izvir and Leb I Sol. But I also love those more underrated lie Smak, Korni Grupa, S Vremena na Vreme and DRAGO MLINAREC, great composer, sadly with only a few reviews.

So, what do you think of the Yugoslavian prog?

The whole tetralogy TITS-ASS-LIPS-EYES from Bijelo Dugme should be highly praised by proglovers!

Tottaly agree! LOL

I'll check them!

What a good coletction. Drugi Nacin indeed are a interesting band, but the other records, besides the first are so disapointing...

Smak is incredible, Leb I Sol and Bildozer also... but do check out Drago Mlinarec, what a underated guy!

I'll have to look into Drago and Bijelo.

My favorites from the 70’s are Indexi, Smak, Leb i Sol, and Korni Grupa. I love Pop Masina's debut and S Vremana too.

From Serbia, Eyot is making excellent music now.

Korni Grupa from Belgrade. This is original studio recording from 1969; actually this is the very first Yugoslav prog epic and it was re-released on the compilation Not So Ordinary Life (2005).

Interesting music! I dont think I get Korni Grupa besides their album better rated in the PA list.

The self titled album by Time is my favourite Yoguslavian album. I can also mention Hobo which has a good one and only album.

And a brain-car... with a line over there... something in the lyrics to explain the mess, perhaps? Dunno.

Igra Staklenih Perli and Hobo are the only Yugoslavian bands I have in my vinyl collection. They are fantastic, esp. ISP.

This one with Far Eastern influence is my fav song from that only one Hobo's album:
 
 
 
 
And my fav by Igra Staklenih Perli (which means "The Glass Bead Game" as the band was named after the famous novel of Hermann Hesse who was very popular writer among the kids here in 70s).
