maybe not perfect but here’s a favorite 1989 album that didn’t make it to @bestalbumbrackets.bsky.social

also, either most of this album isn’t on youtube or the algorithm is hiding it from me

quote skeeting the energy I bring to bluesky dot app
cover photo of the second album by Soviet/Byellorussian VIA Pesnyary. 6 men are standing wearing horizontally striped sweaters, one holds a flute, one a guitar, one an electric bass. three similarly dressed men sit in front of them, one is holding a large stringed instrument that looks related to a zither but I’m not sure what it is, under that in large white letters it says ПЕСНЯРЫ (Pesnyary in the Latin alphabet)
