Vulgar Grad : Limonchiki
VulgarGrad King of Crooks album launch tour, at the Gaelic Club (Sydney), 11 July 2009. This song is not on either of VulgarGrad s albums: King of Crooks (2009) or Popular Street Songs of the Russian Underclass (2005). Caught live during their NSW tour. Music for dancing and drinking. It s vodkafuelled oompah swing ska punk gulagstyle. Here s what Andrew Tanner has to say about this song : It s a socalled Odessa song, originating in the Jewish Black Sea Port, and limonchiki means little lemons. I can thresh grains, I can thresh them all out, I can turn my pockets inside out and drink vodka. Oh, lemons, my little lemons, you grow in my garden Oh lemons, my little lemons, you grow on Sonja s balcony . I don t understand it,
