Most readers of this book will have had at most a fleeting
acquaintancewith the music of some of the groups described in this
book. Groupssuch as Laibach (from Slovenia), Borghesia (Slovenia),
Pankow (theGDR), and Gorky Park (USSR) have concentrated on the
Western marketand have acquired followings in the United States and
Western Europe.Other artists and groups, such as Boris Grebenshikov
and Aquarium(USSR), Sergei Kuryokhin (USSR), Goran Bregovic and
White Button(Yugoslavia), and Plastic People of the Universe
(Czechoslovakia), havealso seen some Western exposure. But for the
most part, the rock musicof that part of the world is terra
incognita to Westerners. So too is thestory of their uneasy
coexistence with communist authorities from thetime that rock first
~ppeared until the collapse of communism in 1989.This book aims to
fill that vacuum.
