Soviet joke!

... but they are

And they shouldn't drive either!

My grandpa was a bad elderly driver before he passed away. The last time I drove with him he almost killed us and other people. When people honked at him he just flipped them off.

Looks like the same stuff cultural conservatives (and Al Gore) over here wanted to ban. Just replace anti-communism with anti-religion.

I find it funny because most of the communists I know are punks (and vice versa) and love Madness.

As for Van Halen, well, they should be banned for contributing to the big hair thing.

Firstly, it's printed with a printer and on odd-looking paper. Secondly, none of the similar documents I saw started with ïðîëåòàðèè âñåõ ñòðàí, ñîåäèíÿòåñü. More likely for it to have Lenin's face, actually. The most ridicilous part though is íåîáõîäèìî îáåñïå÷èòü âñå ìîëîäåæíûå äèñêîòåêè ðàéîíà. Tell me, older Soviet people, how many youth discos do you remember in the ole good USSR that had foreign music, eh?

You have to admit it's funny.

But there were discos with foreign music. I guarantee you.

remember, in the 80s, the leadership of the soviet union was old. Very old. That's what you get when you have your grandpa choosing music for you.

Grampa Antropov, can I listen to AC/DC?

NYET! Fascist scum!

How old is very old? Some of our leaders are pretty old, and the elderly are very strong politically here in the US. You have to be 18, but you can still get anti-capitalist music.

Beside the point. Point is, that politicians shouldn't choose what music you listen to.

I'm kind of curious about the placement of The Stooges on there, considering they'd been split for about twelve years at this point and all the other bands (well, the ones I know) were more-or-less highly active during this period, or at least had been less than five years previously. Any idea why? Did russian youth have a special place for The Stooges in their hearts? Did our good friends in the Komsomol recognise quality when they saw it? (Considering the rest of the list, no.)

Okay so after a little creative googling I found another list that is much the same as the first one, but which purports to be from 1984 (dated September 28). Of course this one is typed in and isn't a scanned image but there are other differences as well. Some artists aren't there while some are new, like:

13. The Who - violence
22. La Bionda - cult of the /strong/ personality, eroticism
23. Öåððîï (??) - eroticism, sex
24. Santa Esmeralda - sex
26. Amanda Lear - eroticism
33. Romans (?) - punk
39. Kid Creole - sex

and another spelling yields:

32. Munich Machine - eroticism

At the bottom of the document is a list of abbreviated references that I can't quite interprete. Anyone?

It's unrelated ifo about typographic facility where it was printed, order number and date.
