Vladimir Vysotsky (25 January 1938 – 25 July 1980) was a Soviet singer, songwriter, poet, and actor. To tell the truth, he became a legend of Soviet music, theater and cinematography.
He was not only singer, but “the most famous Russian bard”, “the greatest Russian bard of the second half of the 20th century”, “voice for the heart of a nation”. His poems touch millions of hearts all over the world.
Actually, he had his unique singing style and lyrics, which featured social and political commentary in often humorous street jargon. In his songs he came out against evil force, against the ugly system under which he was born.
That’s why Vladimir was accepted by the Soviet government as an actor, but never as a poet and singer. Only after his death, in the late 1980s the Soviet government began allowing the publication of his poetry and song lyrics.
He had no titles, he was simply a son of his country, he was very Russian.
