Complete Eric Clapton
Sunday 8 June 2008Recently, English musician Eric Klepton received from the authorities of North Korea’s proposal to give a concert in the capital, Pyongyang. According to rumours, 62 - year old guitarist is going to take it and, tentatively, to address the North Korean audience in summer 2009. If all emerge, the Klepton become the first Western rock musician who obtained access to one of the most closed countries in the world. This is not the first time that the “iron curtain” policy and not lifted by diplomats and officials of culture and art.
Sometimes the desire to see at home favorite musicians or actors raised a legend. For example, in the USSR long course of history that Moscow once secretly visited The Beatles. In fact, the legendary quartet has never acted in the Soviet Union, but the fans wanted this so much that it created a great illusion. But in December 1978, in Moscow went disco group Boney M. The number willing to go to a concert then reached 100 thousand man. And in 1979 - om in the USSR was Elton John, then still not received the Military title. In December 1987, the “iron curtain” to hoist the team Uriah Heep, a year later in Leningrad visited legendary Germans from the Scorpions. In 1989, they were made at a Moscow rock festival, after which the team vocalist Klaus Meine wrote pronzitelnuyu ballad Wind of Change, first appeared in 1990 on the disk Crazy World.
The first western musicians honoured to address the People’s Republic of China became George Michael and Andrew Ridzheli, they are the duo Wham! This occurred one year before the collapse of the group, in 1985, and it cost their manager Simon Napier-Bell effort. He had to fly to Beijing and obzvanivat various ministries, as well as to trudge intrigues against the group Queen, which also planned to get China’s “first right of entry”. Cunning manager demonstrated the Chinese authorities two booklets, one of which were decent photo fans Wham!, And in another - photo Freddy Mercury in calling posture. Then decency Wham! was given the green light, and the team arrived in China with ten visit. The culmination was a concert in front of the 15-thousandth the public in Beijing. Fans were happy to see artists, but sat quietly in their seats - either out of fear of security service, or because of the traditional eastern restraint.
Cuban authorities have also not much to complain artists from countries zagnivayuschego capitalism. In 2001, however, in the Island of freedom made the British group The Manic Street Preachers, in turn, is not hostile to Cuba complained the U.S. government. Concert in the name of Karl Marx theater, where thousands came 5 Cubans became the first in 20 years, a great speech in Cuba western stars. Sami musicians, placed on the cover of his singles The Masses Against The Classes Cuban flag, made clear the public that support Cuba in its struggle against Americanization. Also Party won a meeting with Fidel Castro. Incidentally, in 2003, arrived in Cuba, another prominent critic of the U.S. government - directed by Oliver Stone. He rejects three days interviewed Fidel, bringing to light a documentary film “Comandante”, where the Cuban leader talked about the history of the revolution, film stars and his vision of the future. Do not objected Cubans and against filmmaker Michael Moore, was filmed movie-investigation “Zdravozahoronenie” and went to Cuba for treatment ten rescuers who worked on the ruins of the towers-twins September 11, 2001. On hearing this, U.S. authorities announced the breach of director embargo on travel to Cuba and started the investigation against him.

But another episode: in 2007 in Syria for the first time in 30 years arrived western pop star - singer Enrique Iglesias. He gave a concert in front of 10 thousand fans at a specially built stadium for the event. Shaw was organized by private companies, while revenue from ticket sales went to charity. Organisers had hoped the concert that followed the Iglesiasom junior-will visit to Syria and other stars. Notably, the U.S. government attributed the country to “axis of evil”. But for Iglesias is not become an impediment. Like any musician, he unites hearts around the world, yet policy this world torn apart. What talent! What guitarist! For the first time heard in solo Erika bitlovskoy song “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”, just struck me, HOW he ingeniously played there. Then it became listen to albums and songs. In my opinion, a solo Klepton no less strong than in the composition of Cream. “Layla”, “Probably me”, “My father’s eyes”, “Pilgrim”, “She’s gone”, in general, the list can be endless. And may discourage others’ wives:)), still plays it cool, a great vocal, meaning remarkable songs, shorter - a great musician!
