Music from the 50's - 80's

This site was inspired by the Nostalgie site and its message board Thanks to that site and its kind visitors I found many songs from my youth that were not released on CD's and it's still very hard to find them. Basically I'm talking about music that was popular all over the former Soviet Union 20-50 years ago. The people I became acquainted with thanks to Nostalgie site restored hundreds of rare songs from old vinyls and audio tapes. The music is presented here mostly in Real Audio format. Here are some songs in mp3 format, but in order to download them you must pass the authorization.

Links to my other sites devoted to retro music

These sites do not have mp3's, but they contain more than 800 files with songs and music fragments in Real Audio format. These files can remind you of old melodies, and if you like them you can try to find them on CD's.

Nostalgic Music Collection at Little Russia in San Antonio. Contains a lot of soviet songs .

The soviet singing stars (in Russian) - More than 150 soviet singers from Leonid Utyosov to Alsou with small pictures and music fragments.

Greg's Corner of European Music - devoted to European singers and groups of the 50-90's. More than 400 music fragments and small pictures.

Shocking Blue - devoted to one of my favorite groups.

Eurovision Song Contest - the site with the best (in my opinion) audio fragments from the very popular European song contest.
