Review by Morgan Emali

Valia Et Aliocha Dimitrievitch - A Wild Ride Through Folk, Romani, and Chanson Vibes (1988) Alright, let’s get this straight: Valia Et Aliocha Dimitrievitch isn’t just some random French folk-pop album from the '80s. Nope. It’s a chaotic, heartfelt explosion of Romani soul, chanson swagger, and enough accordion drama to make you forget what year it is. Released in 1988 under BAM and Disc’Az (because apparently one label wasn’t enough), this record feels like stepping into a smoky Paris café where everyone's drunk on cheap wine and nostalgia. First off, shoutout to the photography creds—Leguay and Vic Nowas nailed that cover art vibe. You can tell they were aiming for "mysterious but approachable," and honestly? They crushed it. The whole aesthetic screams, “Yeah, we’re doing our own thing, deal with it.” Now, onto the music. There are gems scattered all over this sucker, but two tracks really stuck with me like gum on a shoe: “Les Yeux Noirs” and “Kalinka.” “Les Yeux Noirs”? Holy crap, man. This song grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go. If emotions had legs, this tune would be sprinting barefoot through cobblestone streets at midnight. The violin work here is INSANE—it’s not even playing; it’s crying. Like legit sobbing. And then there’s the vocal delivery—it’s raw, unfiltered passion dripping out of every note. I swear, if you don’t feel something when this track kicks in, check your pulse because you might be dead. Then there’s “Kalinka,” which is basically THE anthem for anyone who loves high-energy chaos wrapped up in tradition. That iconic rhythm? Instant head-bob material. By the time the chorus hits, you’ll wanna grab a tambourine—or smash a plate, depending on how wild you’re feeling. It’s impossible not to move to this one. Seriously, try sitting still while listening. I dare ya. But here’s the kicker about this album—it’s uneven as hell. Some songs hit harder than others, and sure, a few tracks drag their feet more than they should. But guess what? That’s part of its charm. It’s messy, alive, flawed, and REAL. In an era dominated by polished pop machines, Valia Et Aliocha Dimitrievitch went full throttle into authenticity—and damn, does it show. Final thought: Listening to this album feels like hanging out with someone who talks too loud, drinks too much coffee, and tells stories that jump around so much you lose track—but somehow, you end up loving every second of it anyway. Oh, and fun fact—the mix of Russian classics like “Les Bateliers de la Volga” alongside original compositions gives it this weird cultural mashup vibe that shouldn’t work but totally does. So yeah, crank this baby up if you’re looking for music that punches you in the gut and makes you grin at the same time. Just maybe don’t listen to it during a boring office meeting unless you want to start air-fiddling behind your desk. Unexpected remark: Whoever decided to put “Gari-Gari” after “Le Chant Des Partisans” deserves a medal—or a slap. Hard to tell which.
