	Nordic Culture > The Leningrad Cowboys, Rock and Roll Music from Finland - Scandinavica.com
		After the film Leningrad Cowboys go America the Finns started touring around the world, sometimes acting in film festivals, like in São Paulo, Brazil, where if you wanted to go to the concert you had to donate 3 kg of food for the many children who live in the streets of that city.
		Ten years later, the Leningrad Cowboys were a world-known band, had toured the world several times, and happen to return to the very same Senate Square in Helsinki, in a free public concert that this time, yes, I did not miss.
		The classic rock of the Cowboys was to mix with ethnic sounds from many different parts of the world, and so would do their dressing, as their fl sunglasses and grey military outfit turned rainbow-coloured.

	leningrad-cowboys Mp3 Albums Review
		The Leningrad Cowboys are best when performing rocked-out versions of classic Russian songs like "Katyusha" and "Kazaka".
		I think my favorite brandings by these cowboys are their rendering of the Rolling Stones' It's Only Rock and Roll and ZZ Top's Gimme All Your Lovin.' Less successful are Knockin' on Heaven's Door and Just a Gigolo/I Ain't Got Nobody (though I admit I never liked those songs anyway).
		Particularly noteworthy is the COWBOYS' take on ZZ TOP's Gimme All Your Lovin, which sounds rather a lot like a cross between a sea shanty and a polka.

		For Leningrad Cowboys Go America er tværtimod en lille perle af en independent-komedie: Underspillet vittig og sprudlende opfindsom.
		Leningrad Cowboys Go America fungerer ikke altid optimalt, og hen i mod slutningen er man til tider ved at miste tålmodigheden med den episodiske struktur.
		Filmens hverdagspoetiske billedside løfter de sovjetiske cowboys’ amerikanske eventyr over den basale rock’n’roll-satire og gør Leningrad Cowboys Go America til en tankevækkende uudgrundelig satire over forholdet mellem øst og vest.

		The ultimate cult band, Leningrad Cowboys, were formed in the late 80s as a 10 piece band and continue to the present day though only 2 of the existing members remain (Mauri Sumén & Sakke Järvenpää).
		The joke from the outset was that they were 'the worst rock n'roll band in the world' who with their striking unicorn hairstyles and long pointed shoes had a naff Eastern European intepretation on western rock n'roll.
		The line-up for the band has changed constantly over the last 14 years or so but of the original band members from the 1989 film Leningrad Cowboys Go America film, Sakari Kuosmanen left soon after and has pursued a music and acting career in Finland, appearing in many of Aki Kaurismaki's movies.

		The band was originally put together by film director Aki Kaurismäki for his crazy 1989 comedy Leningrad Cowboys Go America, the tale of a group of cartoonish rock 'n' roll-obsessed Finnish musicians on tour in the United States.
		The Cowboys' insane quiffs, matching sunglasses, colorful suits, and vodka-fuelled insanity left an indelible impression on filmgoers, and the group's popularity soared.
		A movie sequel, Leningrad Cowboys Meet Moses, was released in 1994, beyond which the band continued to develop a life of its own, touring and recording.

		The Leningrad Cowboys, a group of Finnish musicians, and their manager, travel to America seeking fame and fortune...
		In fact there is a wide-eyed, dreamy fondness for America, especially its messy landscapes that hug the interstates and its simple, likable working-classes (but definitely not its prick cops).
		Here we get to meet the immensely likable dreams, music and attire of the Leningrad Cowboys, the misunderstood, maligned, salt of the earth band that comes to America to live out its rock and roll dream.

		I fell for this band as a teenager when I first saw the Aki Kaurismaki film Leningrad Cowboys Go America — documenting the bizarre Finnish folk band's journey through the US and embracing of rock n roll.
		Facing a crowd of 70,000 in the heart of Helsinki and backed by the 200-strong Alexandrov Red Army Ensemble, this is the zenith of all that the Cowboys are.
		The cowboys cast a sardonic yet respectful (and perfectly arranged) eye over classic Finnish folk songs and give the Red Army choir centre stage to blast out some Russian classics but this is all mere filler to their epic re-workings of the classic American songbook.

		In June 1993 the Leningrad Cowboys pulled off the most amazing production: "Total Balalaika Show", a joint concert with the full 160-member Russian Red Army Ensemble, which the Variety magazine called "the most incongruous - and inspired - crosscultural pairing since Nureyev danced with Miss Piggy".
		The performance received thunderous response from the star-studded audience and was seen by over 250 million viewers worldwide.

	DVDBeaver.com - Review "Leningrad Cowboys Go America" Sandrew Metronome - Region 2 - PAL
		The Leningrad Cowboys, one of the most iconographic cult bands, along with The Blues Brothers and Spinal Tap, were formed in the late eighties.
		In 1989, Finnish director Aki Kaurismäki made the first of three films about this legendary band with “Leningrad Cowboys Go America”, and with it, his to date most popular film, starring the original line-up of the band.
		Inspired by the technique of Jim Jarmusch, who also has a cameo as a used car dealer, “Leningrad Cowboys go America” shows the willingness to experiment with style and form of Kaurismäki, here using long static takes and episodic chapters, which alter between scripted vignettes and improvised gigs using local people as audience.

		It was 1993, on Senate Square in Helsinki, Finland, when the Leningrad Cowboys joined the Alexandrov Red Army Ensemble for a unique blend of music and spectacle.
		The Leningrad Cowboys are an American influenced Finnish showband that likes to parody the clichés of rock stardom (look for their over-the-top Elvis-esque hairdos), while the Red Army Ensemble was formed to preserve Russian folk music.
		The event drew 70,000 people, and involved two nations, Finland and Russia, that were at war a half a century ago and then endured a "peaceful coexistence" during the Cold War.
