In 1985, perestroika began in the Soviet Union and the "Laskovyy May" group appeared. At their concerts there were only full houses, because of unrequited love for them, suicides were committed. The figure of Mikhail Gorbachev was faded in the glory of the creator of "Laskovyy May" - Andrei Razin. A randomly taken photo on the beach, where Andrei Razin, as a child, captured with the Gorbachev family, turned his fate around. It was with the help of this photo that he became Gorbachev's nephew. He said this indirectly - so, he hinted, and he was instantly believed. Functionaries of all ranks acted without delay: the doors of television and radio opened before him, the Soviet stage fell at his feet. Razin traveled to all orphanages in the Soviet Union in search of gifted children for his twin groups. "Laskovyy May" toured simultaneously in several cities, giving 5-6 concerts a day. For all ten years of the group's existence, there was not a single ticket not sold or handed over, every fifth resident of the USSR attended their concerts. Time has passed, Gorbachev has left, the Soviet Union has collapsed, the era of "Laskovyy May" has ended, but so far, under the modern arrangements of their songs, modern teenagers have been lighting at discos.
