Background

edit

Except "Član mafije", which criticized the League of Communists of Yugoslavia, the album is unusually devoid of political messages for Riblja Čorba. The hits included Riblja Čorba's first cover, "Zadnji voz za Čačak" (cover of The Monkees' "Last Train to Clarksville"), their biggest all-time hit "Kad padne noć (Upomoć)" and a ballad "Da, to sam ja".

The songs "Nesrećnice nije te sramota" and "Zašto kuče arlauče" were recorded for the album but were released only as a limited edition 7-inch included with the first 1000 copies of the album.[2]

Album cover

edit

The album cover was designed by Jugoslav Vlahović.
