Hello!

I'm new here and new to the music of vladimir vysotsky.
I just recently purchased a CD made by the Rough Guide for
the best music of Russia. Although much of the music is excellent.
Mr. Vysotsky definately sticks out and has captivated me with just
hearing one song ~ Dialoga y Televisora.

I'm now dying to find more of his stuff. I have had a hard time
locating an CDs though. I understand most of his stuff was bootlegged
during the Soviet era and passed on via cassettes. But has any of his
stuff been released on CD?

I did see one CD on Amazon.com, but it was all in French. I'm not
sure if the songs were in French or in Russian, but I'm really only
searching for his original songs in RUssian. I've been learning
Russian over the last few years and find his poetic lyrics a great
way to learn the language as well as the spirit of the times he lived.

Any info would be MUCH appreciated :)
