They got together in 1987 in the town of Siauliai and in a few months became a cult band. After a period of intensive touring throughout Europe and US they were the most experienced Baltic band, and probably the best known in the West. After totally obscure beginnings in the underground of their native town, the wave of liberation threw BIX in front of the tens-of-thousands strong crowds at the first huge Freedom meetings and concerts. The restless energy and efficient spirit of BIX songs perfectly corresponded to the "wind of changes" and the band instantly became one of the country's favourites. BIX has been at the top of Lithuanian pop charts ever since, as well. The next few years were spent in constant touring. BIX participated in number significant festivals in Western end Eastern Europe and played a lot of clubs. Their trips took them to Germany, France, Italy, Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Norway, Sweden and twice United States. The band was invited to the famous rock gatherings - Berlin Independence Days and New Music Seminar in New York. Everywhere they played, their music met enthusiastic audience reaction and excellent reviews. BIX even managed to build up a kind of cult following in some countries, which is not an easy task for a foreign band. BIX had their hard times too. In 1991 a part of the band had a terrible car-crash. The first manager was killed and few members badly injured. It took a long time to recover and start playing again. At that time the overall situation in the old USSR improved to the level where you could make your own records. BIX went into the studio and soon the first album Akli Kariai (Blind Soldiers) was released. It began an extensive discography that not many bands can be proud of. Along with their own albums, BIX songs are included on countless Lithuanian and international compilations. La Bomba from 1992 was a collection of songs they played in the earliest days but never had a chance to record before. It was the repertoire that made BIX a cult band. Despite the low technical quality of the recordings and the cassette-only format, La Bomba still is one of the most popular BIX albums. The internationally-orientated debut CD - Doozgle - released in 1993, brought partly new, partly older reworked repertoire in Lithuanian, English and the never-before-heard Doozgle tongue. The album was distributed in France where BIX supported it with a massive promotional tour. Widely criticised at home for the ignorance of the Lithuanian fans, BIX decided to pay more attention to the native market. The most important event of 1994 was an unplugged-type concert Tikras Garsas at one of the local TV stations. The soundtrack of this unique performance featuring the string section was released on cassette, and three songs on a compilation CD with the same title. One of the most important works of BIX is the album called simply 7. This digit reflecting the age and the number of members in the band at the time of recording shows up more than once in the lyrics and, citing the authors, is 'nice'. The album was released in different editions on MC and CD. The locally-orientated cassette contains one side of Lithuanian lyrics and few bonus tracks, while the CD is English, except one Doozgle-song. 7 shows darker, heavier BIX with less horns and ska influence than ever before. But even with more conventional arrangements and guitars-bass-drums sound, it's the same old BIX, full of surprises, extravagance and humour. Unsatisfied with rather mediocre sells of 7 and the impossibility of getting any Western bookings, the band decided to make some significant changes. They separated from their long-time manager, fired both horn players, got Stimorol sponsorship and signed a new record deal with so-called local major Bomba Records. Under new contract BIX released their earliest home recorded album Ziurkiu Miestas (Rats City) on cassette. The last record to date - Wor's - was recorded and mixed throughout the second half of 1996 and was finally released in the beginning of 1997 on CD and MC. It featured 10 new songs. Wor¹s marked the return to more simple and straight-ahead music while Lithuanian-only lyrics' content was reflected by the promotional campaign motto: Stop Thinking, Let¹s Go Partying. For the first time BIX album cover featured computer design instead of Samas' painting. (Less)

"Making Of Bix" by Lino Patruno

Beiderbecke was born in Davenport, Iowa to a middle-class family of German origins. As a teenager he would sneak off to the banks of the Mississippi to listen to bands play on the riverboats coming from the south. Illness often kept Beiderbecke out of school, and his grades suffered. He attended Davenport High School briefly, but his parents felt that sending him to the exclusive Lake Forest Academy just north of Chicago in Lake Forest, Illinois, as a boarding student would provide him with both the necessary faculty attention and discipline to improve his academic schooling. The change of scenery did not improve Beiderbecke's academic record, as the only subjects in which he showed avid interest were music and sports. Bix soon began going into Chicago often to catch the hot jazz bands at the clubs and speakeasies around Chicago, and often he did not return to his dormitory before curfew or was still off-campus the next day. Beiderbecke was asked to leave the academy due to his academic failings and extracurricular activities in Chicago, and with his time now free he began his musical career. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bix_Beiderbecke Bix Beiderbecke, vero nome Leon Bix Beiderbecke (Davenport, Iowa, 10 marzo 1903 -- New York, 6 agosto 1931) è stato un pianista, trombettista, compositore e cornettista statunitense. Bix (questo era il suo vero secondo nome, che la critica per anni erroneamente ritenne abbreviazione di "Bismarck") Beiderbecke, fu un cornettista e pianista bianco degli Stati Uniti. Siamo negli anni Venti e il mondo del Jazz è attraversato dalla leggenda di un trombettista bianco chiamato Bix. È uno dei migliori musicisti del momento e la sua breve vita è così spericolata e leggendaria che confonde e sovrasta le sue notevoli doti musicali. Il suono della sua tromba è delicato e particolare, elevate le sua capacità nell'improvvisazione. Bambino prodigio, impara a suonare il piano a tre anni e subito dopo si avvicina alla tromba da autodidatta. A scuola è un disastro e così la famiglia decide di mandarlo, nel 1921, all'Accademia Militare, vicino Chicago. A quel tempo la città è la culla del Jazz e naturalmente Bix ne viene influenzato. Nel 1923 diviene musicista professionista e tromba solista del gruppo "Wolverines". Con loro incide delle storiche registrazioni. Un anno dopo Bix lascia il gruppo e si unisce all'orchestra di Goldkette. Ma perde subito il lavoro perché non sa leggere la musica. Trascorre un paio d'anni peregrinando tra Chicago e St. Louis, suonando in piccoli gruppi o orchestre, stretto nella morsa dell'alcool. Arriva il 1927, suo anno magico; ritorna a suonare con Goldkette e registra il suo capolavoro pianistico In a mist. Incide con un piccolo gruppo dei pezzi storici, firma con Paul Whitman ed entra nella sua mitica orchestra come tromba solista. I concerti e le conseguenti registrazioni con Whitman, dove si ascoltano i suoi assolo, sono di portata storica per il Jazz, ma i due anni (1928 - 1930) di permanenza nell'orchestra sono tumultuosi. La dipendenza dall'alcool lo porta alla distruzione e alla morte a soli ventotto anni. Di lui rimane la leggenda e il rispetto della gente di colore per un bianco che sapeva suonare divinamente la loro musica. http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bix_Beiderbecke (Less)
