On this day in history: Yu Rock Mission

Yugoslavian version of Band Aid: Ju-Rok Misija, 15th of June, 1985.

There are many Yu rock stars in this video – try and recognize some.

Whose idea was it to let a child climb on Oliver Mandic?

Hehe, well I guess a lot of the people over there have changed over the year, Mandic, Pedja D Boy, Sladjana Milosevic are some that need to be mentioned as the quirkiest. I don’t think that the producers would have placed a kid next to him today, let alone let anyone climb on him.

But the video is a good reminder that even Balkan/exYu countries were once a world power too – when they were still united, that is.
