Recorded at the Spotkanie Folkowe Festival, Czeremcha, Poland, this album captures The Ukrainians in raw, punky, Respublika mode! Full-on zizzy guitars are to the fore in many songs, yet there are many moments of heart-rending delicacy. The packaging, too is remarkable - a gatefold, recycled card sleeve with a traditional-style embroidery on the front cover. Wow!

Omnium OMM2035
Istoriya collects together 20 of the band’s best tracks over 70 minutes, but, as is typically perverse for The Ukrainians, they start off their ‘Best Of’ collection with a stunning, previously unreleased track, ‘Telstar’ originally a hit on both sides of the Atlantic for The Tornados in 1962!
The enhanced part of the CD features lyrics in Ukrainian, plus translations and transliterations of all the lyrics as well as the group’s fascinating and insightful diary and photos from their 2003 tour of Poland. The booklet contains a history of the band, information about the songs and previously unseen photos.
Zirka Records ZRKCD1
Price: £8.75
A collection of twenty live recordings ranging from the band's earliest performances in 1989 with The Wedding Present to the Kultura album tours of 1994.
Between 1989 and 1997 The Ukrainians played almost 400 concerts in the UK, Europe and North America. This album is a collection of the best desk tapes, professionally mastered. The tracks progress from the band's earliest performances - with The Wedding Present - to festival appearances in 1994. There are traditional Ukrainian songs and the group's own Ukrainian-language compositions plus live versions of songs from the universally acclaimed Pisni iz The Smiths EP. The latter was a chart success in twelve European countries - the record featuring the Ukrainians' unique and unforgettable vodka-fuelled renditions of songs, as you might have guessed, by The Smiths! The album also features a moving version of The Velvet Underground's "Venus In Furs".
