Exactly what I feel about language "barrier" - it never bothered me, but some people do find difficulties if they do not understand the lyrics. For me, the lyrics of songs are more interesting as sounds than as actual meaning, but I guess it is all personal feeling.

The second studio album "Kameni cvjetovi" (Stone Flowers) from 1999 is good, more pop rock, but far from Modra rijeka.

The recent 2CD compilation "U inat godinama" issued by Croatia Rec. is recommended for prog fans, no pop hits are included. Cheers.

I've never viewed language as a barrier to my enjoyment of the music. I do know that for this album in particular understanding the language would only enhance my appreciation. Maybe I'll check out more of those translations mentioned earlier in the post.

I'm excited to try some of these downloads too. These compilations are hard to come by in the US. I also have the 1999 studio album.

Thanks!

Alain, try download this one: http://rapidshare.com/files/12570184/Indexi_-_Indexi__1972__YUG.rar

It is a very rare cassette tape issued in 1972. Many of the songs were never released on any other format.
No beat pop, no syrupy ballads, only prog!

Unfortunately, this is the only format (mp3) which is available to find now.

Sead, I have downloaded this but it asks me for password when trying to unpack! Do you have the password by chance? Thanks.

Sorry for this. I was not the one who uploaded it so I forget about the password.

Try this one: najpogodnijemesto

It worked, thanks a lot!

I am glad to hear you like it despite the language problems. This LP is surely something unique, even for the Yugoslav context back than... Cheers! Smile

Ha, amazing! But I believe you of course, since the "world we are living in" is occupied by consumerist junk all over around - I regularly attend book fair at Sarajevo, 2 times a year and it is unbelievable what type of trash literature has been put in front rows of the book stands (with few exceptions)...

But I ma sure Dizdar can be found at libraries (where you can borrow and make copies) or at second hand shops. Keep trying... Thumbs Up

Seyo, would you believe it, I was not able to find any Dizdar's books (which I was searching since mid 90s) in any Croatian bookshop!! (including the online shops). Angry

There might be a chance at second-hand bookstores, but it's a lottery. Cry

I think some of the songs from "Modra rijeka" are taken from Dizdar's poetry book "Stone Sleeper" which has been translated into English.

Music pruduction of BH Public Broadcast TV is preparing a monumental 17CDs+1DVD (!) box set dedicated to INDEXI. As a successor of former Radio TV Sarajevo they are in possession of many rare, archival and un-released Indexi songs. I can hardly wait because I suspect many of these songs were too avant-garde or non-commercial to be published at the time (late 1960s/early 1970s). The collection should appear in stores during 2008...

any news regarding this? ^

Not yet I am afraid. Cry

I might well write again to the Music Production and ask them...

Yes, I posted these 3 (actually 2) songs in English. There are two translations of "Blue River" and a "Word about the Man". These 2 bear Mak Dizdar Foundation mark so I guess there are more available...

I would really like to find 'Modra rijeka' lyrics somewhere (perhaps the best lyrics I ever experienced in music) and translate them to English, at least in a rudimentary form. I had that idea since I joined this site, but I had never find the lyrics Cry

You are right. There are many non-English bands that are excellent but unknown. I must confess that I don't know well even Italian scene, and not to mention other "eastern" countries. I heard about Phoenix and will definitely check them out....

Time always wins.
