"THERE WOULD BE NO FAMILY - FOR A LONG TIME WOULD LEAVE IN THE MONASTERY".
Natalia HRAMOVA "Today"
My generation well remembers Alexander Barykina - pretty
The executor of not less lovely song "Bouquet". During one time it enough
Quite often suggested to read from the TV screen "the Program schedule
For tomorrow ", and the band of noisy children joyfully cried out:" Is not present, no,
No, we want today! No, no, no, we want now! ".
The author well-known "I long will drive a bicycle" rather have changed:
Became sharp, gloomy and categorical. With pleasure speaks about
"Yesterday", but with a pain about "today". Such sensation, that it remained there -
In 80 when had a reputation for the hero-fighter with a mode, and organised by it and
Group "Carnival" used Vladimir Kuzmin the mad
Popularity...
"I HATE TO SPEAK ABOUT SHOW BUSINESS!".
-- Alexander, here you admitted, that do not like correspondents.
Why?.
-- Simply tired. At all because muddle, when
Write. Know, I like more to philosophise, rather than
To answer questions. And on a show business subject simply I hate
To talk.
-- Well, let's talk "for a life". Know, friends, having learnt, that
I am going to to communicate with you, asked: and that now does Barykin and
Where it was gone?.
-- I write songs for other executors - Valerys, Marina
Hlebnikovoj, sisters Zajtsevyh, group "Dune", Senchukovoj. At us is
The studio in the city of Lyubertsy. Besides, I give live concerts. Under
Soundtrack I do not sing - essentially. Here now in Dnepropetrovsk was
My concert with Vladimir Kuzmin - first time for 15 years left on
Scene and "Carnival", and "Dinamik". It, on-essence, a concert-memoirs about
That 80 when both of us were on glory peak. We played three and a half
Hour - the concert was abrupt! There was an idea to make joint round.
It is good, that there are businessmen who wish to hear old music.
-- Why have suddenly decided to revive "Carnival"?.
-- Know, how it is now fashionable: have phoned - have run together, though all
Work in the different places, one even in Switzerland. But if give the good
Money (as it was in Dnepropetrovsk), why is not present? In the West
Constantly old groups are going to under any monetary project. But
We, for example, have solved at once: on clubs we will not work - only on
Platforms. Again we play rock'n roll and reggae. (In 1981 Alexander
Barykin and Vladimir Kuzmin have written down the first magnitoalbom
"Superman" with songs in style rock'n roll and reggae. It had the huge
Success at fans of domestic fate. - N. H) And only in Russian
Language. Remember the well-known song "Hotel California" groups EAGLS? They
Have revived last year, have driven on 60 cities Connected
States also have collected money six times more than Michael Jackson! And in
Russia there will be the same. Group "Revival" recently has revived, and
From variety - "Semi-precious stones". Though... "Semi-precious stones" are a bosh dog,
At least for me.
"SUCH KOBZONS AS MUCH AS NECESSARY!".
-- That to you allows to think, that your creativity is "not bosh
Dog "?.
-- All music which was formed against electronic, has
English-Saxon origin. And only then we are natives -
Have learnt to take a guitar and to reproduce something. There all has been based
On perfect folklore - the same Beatles. And here - on vile
To the Soviet song. In it there is no life.
-- Perhaps it is not necessary all Soviet song - under one comb? You here
Sang "evenings Situated near Moscow". Unless it not remarkable, though and
The "Soviet" song?.
-- (Sharply.) the song is when there is a drive, when people
Wake up. (With sarcasm.) and when sings remarkable "pevets",
Especially old, also does a robot smile... (Tightens a melody,
Parodying Kobzon's voice.).
-- You Kobzon mean it?.
-- Yes everybody! Such Kobzons across Russia the person 15! It I am sincere
I speak. I - for rock'n roll, for all its directions, for music of a drive,
For the country-fate which rises from weights and to them goes. Look,
Unless DDT, "Pesnjary", "Alisa", "Cinema", Kuzmin is not life music?
And sample music of manufacturers from the Union of composers, which
It is taken as a principle modern arrangements, is a nasty thing. It is lie!
Also can speak me everything, I all the same will disagree with you! And about
I even to speak to a modern pop-music I do not want - at me epithets not
Will suffice...
"FIVE YEARS ANY MORE I DO NOT DRINK - EVEN BEER".
-- Remember, to п п п п п©п п п?п -80 "Carnival" has prepared the special program
In English, and to act on Olympic show to you have not given. It
The truth, what you then wished to emigrate? If yes, whether that regret
Now, what have not made it?.
-- We wanted, yes with Volodej wives have not started up us. At all I do not regret -
I the patriot of the country. I for Orthodoxy, for revival of all Slavs.
That us as Serbs, with bombs did not shower.
-- Some rock musicians, leaving an underground by the end 80, suddenly
Have become puzzled: all is authorised, to struggle there is nothing... As you of
Felt then and now?.
-- To struggle always was and is with what. But now I force myself
To reconcile - believe, it is much bigger struggle, than to shout at all
Back streets and to run with posters. Saving itself and conscience,
Naturally, you start to reflect and help people - really,
Instead of it is pathos-blefujushche.
-- What you in yourselves do not like more all?.
-- Laziness I do not like also animosity which is necessary for nobody. To be angry not
On what: people both live, and will live. You, the main thing, with itself
Consult also all it will be good. Here, I try to go to church - it is necessary
Good luck to live. And those 70 years were without the God, created, that wanted, all
Have destroyed...
-- And in today's dilapidated Russia it is not terrible to you to live?.
-- To the person who believes in God, it is terrible nothing. (It is thoughtful.)
It was terrible to drink. But has thrown, five years any more I do not drink anything, even beer.
Simply the church has helped. And coding, healers everyones are very much
Terribly. It against the God.
"WE WITH KUZMIN WERE DIVIDED BY THE SOVIET PLATFORM".
-- It is known, that between you and Kuzmin there was a sharp conflict,
Owing to what has arisen two "Carnivals" - yours and Kuzmin...
-- It was not human, but the creative conflict. At us has collected
Too much a musical material, and all in one collective not
Was located. (With laughter.) umishche where to put! In general, has arisen
Requirement in bolshem quantity of people that it to realise. And so
We with Volodej were adherents. Really us has divided
The Soviet platform which smothered all.
-- As you consider, Kuzmin has made today more an outstanding career,
Than you?.
-- I think, no. At me the settled name, I have proved as
The composer. I can not work and write a song. He while to afford
It cannot: as to the author to it behind songs nobody addresses. It
Can earn only game on a guitar. In this sense to it it is heavier.
-- But in something to it it is easier, for it is more untwisted and popular.
-- You mean promotion on TV? Yes, me does not twist ORT and RTR,
Because I pay in it money. Still that did not suffice! I for them struggled
It is so much years and I should them pay money?! But 31st channel, TV-centre
And TV-6 show me constantly. Know, it is impossible to "lower" in
The creative plan the person who it does not allow. It is impossible
To "lower" a name or a song - even about a bouquet because it will be
It is popular and in the XXI-st century. Here is "the river Volga" Flows, and there will be "I
Long to drive a bicycle ".
-- Your son-musician with a piety concerns everything, what you do?.
-- My son very serious musician: to it all address, even
Well-known di-dzhei the Lantern and Groove. It organises projects another
To groups, does arrangements and so earns money. Besides, it
Plays a guitar and owns all existing musical
Computers. Naturally, I brought up it on the defined
Musical tradition. But that it became fate-n-rolshchikom - only it
Merit. And he, as well as I, never will betray the music. Probably, it
Will write smash hits for others, after all that most
To be untwisted, it is necessary to have two cars of money, and they at us are not present.
"I ABRUPT, BUT THE WIFE MORE ABRUPTLY".
-- Alexander, say that at you marvellously a strong family that is rare
Happens among musicians. How it was possible to avoid storms and shocks?.
-- Tried to keep the friend for the friend. I tried not to betray. But
Has betrayed few times, then pokajalsja. Besides, in one good day, I
Has understood, that should reconcile. The plait on a stone is a bad life. I
Abrupt, but the wife even more abruptly - at it the Caucasian character. Therefore I
Has learnt to leave diplomatically from scandals. After all if someone from a two
At the certain moment will not leave in other room, to someone to one
It is necessary to leave on street. All is very simple.
-- You could renounce home life for the sake of creativity or
On the contrary?.
-- It is not necessary to renounce what. Let all will be rather. To it learnt
Even sacred fathers-apostles. If I would not have a family, I would leave in
Monastery. And so, I should live in the world and care of the relatives.
It is my way.
