There is a story about the video below. I didn't get it because of the video itself (there's not much to it). The group performing the song was called Black Russian, and they were immigrants from the Soviet Union. When I first heard the song, "Leave Me Now" I fell in love with it and I fell in love with the three group members. Through the years I tried to find out if they'd released another song, or just what they were up to and the strangest thing happened. No one had ever heard of them! I even called the record label they were on (Motown!) and they told me they had no record of Black Russian--ever. So for many years I was worried, thinking that maybe something might have happened to them politically or something but I never knew. I just happened to type in the name at You Tube and VOILA!: The song was there! Other comments mirrored mine...people were perplexed at the "disappearance". But now I have the song again and I'm pleased to share it. (There's actually a nice modulation near the end that builds into Natasha's climactic vocal.)
UPDATE: Natasha Shneider, formerly with the "Black Russian" group, who was a member of the group "Eleven" has passed away. A long journey for me ends very sadly. She was a phenonmenal talent.
Rest in peace, Natasha.
I can't believe I found this one too!!!
Love the music.
