You can express your protest to the current rules or traditions in different ways. Rock music today is associated by some listeners with protest moods. That was exactly the case in the 80s, when Mikhail Borzykin appeared on the scene.
The beginning of perestroika
In the history of world civilization, situations regularly arise when a certain part of the population requires change. The events of the 80s in the Soviet Union serve as a clear illustration of this phenomenon. Stunned spectators often lost their orientation in time and space. A refrain sounded from one flank - we want change. On the other hand, the famous rock singer Borzykin wheezed from the scene "Your dad, a fascist." He did it well.
Numerous sources indicate that Mikhail Vladimirovich Borzykin was born on May 27, 1962. The family lived in the Stavropol Territory. After some time, my father was transferred to work in Leningrad. The child was sent to school with in-depth study of the English language. After the semi-wild steppes, the future rock musician, opening his mouth, watched how the St. Petersburg bohemia lives. Much later, he will understand why one of the cult TV series is called "Gangster Petersburg."
Professional activity
After graduating from school in 1979, Mikhail entered the Department of Foreign Languages at Leningrad University. He did not want to get an education in order to read Shakespeare in the original. Borzykin wanted to translate tests of songs performed by rock singers from America and other foreign countries. In 1984, the singer and his companions created the TV group. In just a couple of months, the team becomes a laureate of the Leningrad Rock Festival. And the leader received a special prize for creating song lyrics.
Borzykin's creative career was developing quite successfully. He was ordered songs of anti-Soviet themes, and with great desire and even enthusiasm he carried out assignments of a similar nature. Moreover, in the mid-80s the rock group "Television" was one of the first to perform songs of an anti-Soviet orientation. Fans carried musicians in their arms, curators generously paid for creativity of a dubious nature.
