Dirt Minds / Gresne misli

Late 60s of 20th Century

 The bend didn't ride on the crest of the wave of late sixties, but was shaken thoroughly with the power of its ideas. Vietnam war was at its peak, so the slogans like GIVE PACE A CHANCE, under the familiar symbol of PEACE, fell on the fertile soil. R'N'R music was of the essence of spreading the idea. No doubt, the symbol of the movement was Mr. John Lennon, whose sincerity and courage were unprecedented. As much as he was sincere in his undertakings he was also as much naive (and so were all the fellows involved in the romantic story of the Last Step.). As a result, he paid the ultimate price for trying to make his dreams (about a better world) come true. His assassination is a landmark in human history. It was a hard proof that bare, brutal force, applied by few, dexterous and ruthless elite groups, is what shapes our future. They see nothing but their personal interest: they're the symbol of greed and hypocrisy.

 Therefore, the idea about building a free world as a peaceful place for all people of all religious and racial groups vanished into thin air.

WHAT I NEED FOR A LONELY WALK ACROSS INFINITY

I’m asking you for a dash of dream,
For a strange day knitted out of cloudy souls.

I beg you:
“Do it for me now!”,
“Deceive Lord Almighty - if you should.”

The Beginning It is possible to trace back the birth of Poslednji stepnik (The Last Step) into mid seventies of the 20 th century. The event took place at a scout camp in Croatia, on top of the hill called “The Old Man.” The hill is situated close to the settlement of Kostajnica overlooking its Bosnian counterpart on the other side of the Una river. At the time, both belonged to the beautiful country of Yugoslavia. There, sitting around a bonfire accompanied with the guitar, the two youngsters, Bikadi Zoltan (from here on: Mr. Bicady) and Radulovic Dragan (further on: D.R.Phantom) came to the point that they share the affection about music, in fact, rock and roll music. Having got back home again they animated some of their friends about fresh born idea. The idea was warmly welcomed, so a friend of theirs Mr. Vranes Branislav popped up with the expression Poslednji stepenik (The Last Step) as a brand new name for a brand new music band of Bela Crkva. They were all begi

Mr. Zlatar This is the right place to mention one name that played so important role in the course of the Last Step. This post is about person who is not a musician. His name is Mr. Zlatar Milan. His manner is quite different than of those who played in the band. He always acts in a business like fashion. Yet, he likes music, more precisely: music and dancing. That's why he stays close to POP music, while considering the fans of R'N'R as some kind of eccentrics. Nevertheless, he was fond of all that a lot. He did a great deal of good things to the Last Step. Actually, whenever were in any kind of trouble, the crew of the band addressed Mr. Zlatar for help. Their appeals were never ignored. Finally, during making records in Belgrade he was the one who made the job done.
