ROCK CALENDAR: February 18, 1952 was born Russian musician Alexander Barykin

I must say – this is one of my favorite musicians – singer, guitarist, composer, poet, music organizer... And most importantly – he wrote great songs (for young would call a "Bouquet»)…

Born in Beryozovo, Tyumen region. Remember "Menshikov in birch"? There. Real name – Birikin, but it was too inconvenient for the stars.
As a child, moved to Lyubertsy, summer often rested in Volsk (Saratov region) on the Volga. There were going to put a monument to it-but I don't know – whether gathered? Likely- " Money there is no, but you hold on!»
Sang in "Cheerful children", participated in the recording of "On the wave of my memory",and kuzminym organized a "Carnival".

"And death is full of cunning, he was trapped, and struck his – stick around the corner..." in General, it ended up that he found her with a young lover, left her apartment and went to the country. Punished-that is called. After that-excitement, hypertensive crisis, heart attack on stage, death. As told to his fate – "no luck..." Oh, brothers! If you know where to fall-in advance podstelil would…
