The new work by M.Kravchinksy narrates about people, who ventured to compose and tape songs of "unofficial variety art" in Soviet realia. One may learn when the notion of "forbidden music" appeared in the USSR and what people thought about "convicts'' songs in tsarist Russia. The readers may also discover true names of the authors of "Murka", "Bublichki", "Gop so smykom", "Institutki" and many other "popular" songs.
