Info zespołu:

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.

THE UKRAINIANS play music which is a mix of contemporary Western and traditional Ukrainian styles, reflecting the cultural and ethnic backgrounds of our members. We use electric guitars, mandolins, accordions, violin, electric bass guitar and drums - and we sing in Ukrainian!
