5.0 out of 5 stars Widescreen epic, 10 Dec 2003
By A Customer
A typically eccentric gesture, but surely a career milestone, this CD presents a wealth of Russian romantic song, backed up by the some of the finest musicians and performers that great country has to offer. Marc rises to the occasion with flawless, passionate performance and a surefooted sense for the material.

The production is lavish, reflecting the talent involved; This has the depth and variety of one of Scott Walker's classics. Live with it, love it, get lost in it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Glimpse into the Russian Soul, 12 Nov 2003
By Mrs. M. Van Wensveen (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Loved it. To me, as a Russian person living abroad, this album was deeply moving and comforting. It has a beautiful variety of songs performed with great passion and love.
Although, in my opinion, the album will mainly appeal to the people who have some interest in Russia (and the mysterious Russian soul for that matter). It gives you a glimpse!

5.0 out of 5 stars Yet another commercial failure, 19 Nov 2003
By A Customer
Marc Almond is a champion of producing excellent albums that are destined to fail commercially, and this one is no exception. It's hard to think of anything weirder to do than deciding to sing a collection of Russian songs from the last century - apart from perhaps going to Tibet and singing with the monks.
The choice of songs is quite strange. For a non-Russian audience they are far too unknown, while younger Russians might not appreciate many songs simply because they are too old. In other words, it's a very "niche" album, but if you belong to the niche (like I do), you are going to enjoy it a lot.
"Gone but not forgotten," the only Almond's own song on the CD, remains the best, partly because it's arranged and performed so much better than the rest. Actually, if one day Marc would decide to record a second Russian album, I would seriously advise to:
1) avoid collaborating with Russian artists; instead, simply take the songs and let Martin Watkins work on them;
2) never sing with Russians, at least with the male Russian artists from this album. The duets with Alla Bayanova are actually quite good, and Zykina's attempt at singing in English is alone worth the price of this CD.
3) never sing in Russian; Marc is simply not good at it.
4) have the Russian lirycs translated by a professional. Although Marc tries to compensate for the sloppy translations with his voice, sometimes it's just too noticeable.
That said, this album remains a must for all Marc's fans and certainly has a nostalgic value for the older generation of Russians.
