Default The Bolshoi!!!Does anyone know them??

I remember there was a discussion about favourite tracks and someone posted about The Bolshoi which I love but no-one I know, even the lads that are meant to be into music, have heard of them!!!

I think they are trying to get me commited for making them up!!

I have a couple of albums but they are at my ex wifes house!!

Have I made the whole thing up in order to make friends??

Nope, they exist(ed) alright...

Had a huge single with Away which I think might have been used on a beer commercial.

Amazon.co.uk: Away - The Best of The Bolshoi: Music: The Bolshoi

Thank god!!! I knew I wasnt going mad!!!

A mate of mine says Im stuck in the 80s (early Depeche Mode, Human League, Soft Cell, Clash, Jam etc with a bit of Smiths, Stone Roses in the mix) even though Im 33. He's 41 and has always said he's more of a music god with me being a young up-start clinging on to something I never really experienced!!

True, but the word Bolshoi is purely the Russian word for Big! The term bolshy comes from the Bolsheviks.
So, some useless information!!

That's where you get the old Soviet joke -

Q. What's the Maly Ballet?

A. The Bolshoi Ballet after an international tour.
