About Me



Videospot 'Z Gorickega v Piran'

"Vlado Kreslin is the Slovenian "Bob Dylan". He is immmensely popular in Slovenia. His songs have been used as the basis for novels and films. Scott McCaughey (R.E.M.) introduced me to his music, having discovered Kreslin's music when he opened for R.E.M. this past summer in Slovenia."
(Chris Eckman of The Walkabouts who have recorded their own version of Vlado's song Tista crna kitara (That Black Guitar) on their album The Train Leaves At Eight)

Kreslin is something of a national institution in Slovenia, a singer and songwriter who is also responsible for a reawakening of interest in older traditional ballads and songs. Martin Krpan split after opening for Bob Dylan in Ljubljana in 1991. It seems his place in Slovenian culture is an amalgam of Christy Moore, John Williamson and Jacques Brel.
(The Camberra Times, Tuesday, February 17, 1998, Graham McDonald)
