2014 release. Shadoks Music present a reissue of Yury Morozov's Cherry Garden of Jimi Hendrix (1973). This may be the first time a western label is releasing an underground album from former USSR. Yury Morozov has sadly passed away but Shadoks worked out a release with his widow Nina for this amazing album. When Yury was asked in an interview of how many albums he recorded, the answer was 14,7 kilo (tapes). There are 45 albums by Yury and hopefully they will come out in Russia as a CD Box and Shadoks would release more. Cherry Garden is an amazing album full of effects, great songs, tons of fuzz guitar, sometimes dark and heavy, sometimes light and funny with the atmosphere of a Tarkovsky movie such as Stalker (1979) and Solaris (1972). Yury plays most of the instruments, and he actually built his gear and effects. Later on Yury recorded in London at Abbey Road Studios and became friend with many famous British musicians. Yury Morozov is an enigma of Soviet underground music. In 1973, his music was only available as tapes exchanging hands among fans since he did not match the political and musical Soviet guidelines. Cherry Garden is a surreal underground rock album which is a stand-out by International psych standards. 180 gram vinyl. Comes in a heavy sleeve with a two-page insert. Edition of 500 (numbered).

Shadoks Music are really proud to release an album from Russia 1973. It might be the first time ever that a Western label is releasing an underground album from the former USSR. Yury Morozov sadly passed away a few years ago, but with the help of good friends, Shadoks worked out a release with his widow Nina for this amazing album from 1973 called Cherry Garden of Jimi Hendrix. When Yury was asked in an interview of how many albums he recorded, the answer was 14,7 kilo (tapes). There are 45 albums by Yury and hopefully they will come out in Russia as a CD box, at which time Shadoks will release more. Cherry Garden is an amazing album full of effects, great songs, tons of fuzz guitar, sometimes dark and heavy, sometimes light and funny, with the atmosphere of a Tarkovsky movie such as Stalker and Solaris. Yury plays most instruments, and he plays most of his own gear and effects. Later on, Yury recorded in London at Abbey Road Studios and became friends with many famous British musicians. Yury Morozov is an enigma of Soviet underground music. In 1973 his music was only available as tapes exchanging hands among fans, since he did not meet the Soviet political and musical guidelines.
