About Bijelo Dugme

Bijelo Dugme is the seventh studio album by Former Yugoslav and Bosnian rock band Bijelo Dugme. Due to Bijelo Dugme's usage of Uroš Predić's famous painting Kosovo Maiden for the album cover, the album is unofficially known as Kosovka djevojka (trans. Kosovo Maiden). Bijelo Dugme is the band's only album recorded with vocalist Mladen Vojičić "Tifa", who came to the band as the replacement for Željko Bebek. The album is also notable for featuring the band's former member Laza Ristovski, who, after the album was released, became an official member of the band once again. The album was praised for the usage of computers and digital synths such as the emulator and waveterm. Even bregovic claimed that the use of such instruments increased their musical spher that columinated into the success of the album. Laza was known for reusing his equipment for the later album "Pljuni I zapjevaj moja jugoslavijo" Bijelo Dugme was polled in 1998 as the 28th on the list of 100 greatest Yugoslav rock and pop albums in the book YU 100: najbolji albumi jugoslovenske rok i pop muzike (YU 100: The Best Albums of Yugoslav Pop and Rock Music) more »
