Indeed a great song, from a great album, from agreat band!

I always tough that Buldozer vocals were remarcably close to those of Blue Cheer... maybe in the pitch? Dont know, but I made that conection (nothing to do with the music, only the vocal).

Rebus and Kumova Slama ("Milky Way") (1979), my favourite jazz-rock instrumentals by Leb i Sol. The first one would be great for acoustic piano lovers, while second video is a perfect one for Minimoog lovers...

The first three albums by Leb i Sol are so wonderful.

Besonacko is still good (no keys unfortunately) while Sledovanje is a sort of compromise... the least favourite btw.

And yeah Stefanovski is a top notch guitarist

I'm not a fan of Leb i Sol as a trio. I do love a few songs by them as a trio but that's all. However, as you already said as well, their first three album are really great.
 
My favourite one from Leb i Sol 2 (1978). Nikola's minimoog here is just amazing in that interplay with Vlatko's acoustic guitar.

During the recording sessions of their second ('ass') album in AIR Studios at Oxford Circus in London, 1975, Bijelo Dugme was recorded one song in English. It was not released before 1981 when it was released as a promo single for the journalists as a part of promotion campaign for their 1981 album Doživjeti stotu. Thanks to Youtube, it's here now:

Kad misli mi vrludaju ("When my thoughts run free") is the debut album by Aerodrom released in 1979. It was recorded in Ljubljana, Yugoslavia, and mastered in Ludwigsburg, West Germany. At the album are two "hits" released as the single also; that's the title (opening) track and Kraj tebe u tami ("Near you in the dark"); Yugoslav record companies sometimes asked the prog bands for one or two mediocre songs as supposed "commercial hits" that to find the place on an album, though at rest of LPs the bands had freedom to do what they wanted.

Always loved this little gem thats not a pretentious one but Radomir Mihajlović Točak proved himself once again as the best prog guitarist in Continental Europe.

"More" is the zenith of the "Modra Rijeka" albumClap.

Apartman 69 was a prog band from Belgrade who released only one album in 1983, Seti se moje pesme ("Remember my song"). Not in Prog Archives yet. Probably because nobody suggested them yet.

Aerodrom and Galija are on my wishlist!

I've been searching for them on shops in Histria and Fiume/Rijeka since 2007.

Bijelo Dugme, Leb i Sol and Smak are very easy to find. In fact they're in the major league of yugoslavian prog (like PFM, Le Orme, and Banco are in RPI).
