Kdyby tisc klarinet / Starci na chmelu – CD

This CD brings together songs from two iconic Czech film musicals of the 1960s, If a Thousand Clarinets and Hop Pickers. Released in 1964, both films belong to the golden heritage of Czech cinema and popular music, reflecting the optimism, energy and atmosphere of the cultural freedom of the era. They also share several performers, above all Karel Gott, whose appearances in both productions produced nine songs, most of them major hits such as Dotkat se hvzd, Glory, Tak abyste to vdla, ivot je bl dm, Kdyby sis oi vyplakala and Den je krsn. Waldemar Matuka, Eva Pilarov, Hana Hegerov, Karel tdr and other stars also owe their signature hits to Ji Such, Ji litr, Malsek, Hla, Baant and Blaek.
