IZ SVE SNAGE

This is a good early compilation of DUGME focusing on the more popular, hit parts of the first two studio albums. Additionally, it contains 3 singles-only tracks ("Top", "Da sam pekar" and "Da mi je znati koji joj je vrag"), making this release a nice and highly informative package on the "pastirski rok" phenomenon from the mid-70s Yugoslavia. It is not recommended to exclusive prog rock listeners because it contains few elements of the genre.

PERSONAL RATING: 3,5/5

P.A. RATING: 3/5

Extreme interesting compilation focused on 1974/ 1975 recordings.

I think that Bijelo Dugme is a great Heavy Prog band and this compilation is extremely god in this sense. I bought this compilation in Mercator (Nova Goriza) for ? 4,17 and in my car (during my jouney returning home (with an intermediate step to lengthen the journey) I think that this CD has melted! Because yes, Bijelo Dugme in 1974/ 1975 was one of the best European bands and songs as 'Top', 'Tako ti je, mala moja, kad ljubi bosanac', 'Ne spavaj, mala moja, muzika dok svira', 'Dosao sam da ti kazem da odlazim', 'Da sam pekar', 'Ne gledaj me tako i ne ljubi me vise', 'Hop-cup' and 'Selma' are between my all time 100 top songs! The style is basically Rock, Hard Rock with great twin guitar and organ (or moog) with great vocal parts.

'Iz sve snage' is not a perfect compilation. But for me 'Iz sve snage' is magical as compilation.
