 Czesław Niemen - Wikipedia
W początkach kariery, po odniesieniu pierwszych sukcesów, w tym także na koncertach we Francji, zaczął za namową żony Franciszka Walickiego zamiast swojego nazwiska posługiwać się pseudonimem artystycznym Niemen, jako nie tylko atrakcyjniejszym marketingowo w Polsce, ale także łatwiej wymawialnym dla cudzoziemców.
Niemen początkowo grający na organach, z wolna rozbudował swoje klawiszowe instrumentarium, dodając najpierw melotron, a potem jako pierwszy polski muzyk, syntezator Mooga.
Czesław Niemen zdobył pewną popularność na Zachodzie, zwłaszcza w krajach anglosaskich, lecz mimo swego wielkiego potencjału artystycznego, nigdy nie zdołał się przedrzeć do pierwszej ligi progresywnego rocka.

Niemen's numerous concerts in the 1980s included the Extravaganza promotional concert of Polish artists in New York (1985); the Jarocin Festival and Queen Elizabeth Hall in London (1987).

Of the great majority of the 600 thousand who had crossed the Niemen in the month of June Anno 1812, there was recorded in the list of their regiments, in the archives "_Disappeared during the Retreat_" and nothing else.
The roads were in a terrible condition, almost unpassable on account of the rain which had been continuous since the crossing of the Niemen; the artillery wagons especially gave great trouble in passing marshes, and, on account of the extreme exhaustion of the horses, a great many of these vehicles had to be abandoned.
From the shores of the Niemen to the banks of the Rhine it was easy to recognize those persons who constituted the remainder of an army immolated by cold and misery the most appalling.

She was kind enough to act upon my casual request to look for stuff by Czeslaw Niemen —the keyboard wizard and Michal Urbaniak —the violin virtuoso, during their recent trip to Poland.
Czeslaw Niemen, as I have mentioned before, was one of the star performers at the first Jazz Yatra in Bombay [now Mumbai] in India, which was my very first exposure to live jazz, that too in liberal dollops, for it lasted one whole week and the sessions were pretty long.
Niemen bordered on the jazz-rock, then a big phenomenon everywhere, and his ability to stick to a rocking rhythm as he literally freaked out on total improvisation in every single number he played for over an hour, stayed fresh in memory for decades.

 Recollections of Marshal Macdonald
We marched to the Niemen, where we took up our position, and on June 24 the entire army crossed it during the night, without the slightest opposition.
They were vigorously attacked by the Generals of my advance-guard, Grandjean and Bachelu, who did well in not waiting for me. I had made a detour in order to flank and turn the enemy.
I knew that the enemy, by forced marches, were crossing the Niemen above my position, and that their principal body were following the course of the Pregel in my rear.

 The Russian War of 1812
Niemen no less than two-thirds were Germans, Austrians, Poles or Italians.
On the other hand, the Russians, once their fatherland was invaded, became dominated by an ever growing spirit of fanaticism, and they were by nature too obedient to their natural leaders, and too well inured to the hardships of campaigning, to lose their courage in a retreat.
The French army was thus disposed almost in an equilateral triangle with sides of about 570 m., with 95,000 men at the apex at Moscow opposed to 120,000, 30,000 about Brest opposite 100,000 and 17,000 about Drissa confronted by 40,000, whilst in the center of the base at Smolensk lay Victor’s corps, about 30,000.
