I’m English and was in Moscow in 1987. What I remember was ‘trying’ to spend 48 Roubles! I had sold a pair of Levi jeans and U2 t-shirts. I ended up buying 6 bottles of Russian champagne in hotel’s rouble bar on the last night, just to get rid. An American guy in our hotel had 120 roubles in his possession. God only if he spent them in time. Probably treated half of Moscow to free ice cream or ended up binning the notes at Sheremetevo!…..

I love documentaries from the old days, no matter the subject.
I watched one last week about turpentine distillation in the 1950's. It was fascinating to see how they did it.
I'm glad I found your channel, you seem to have a lot of very cool material like that.
Cheers, friend! ✌️

Then Soviet Architecture was also adapted in Modern Architecture due to it's minimalistic design and easily to build and one of the example is the modern house.

The way the first 15 seconds of this documentary opens with the distorted, 80s ass VHS analog intro, and then just abruptly cuts to this no-context footage of traditional Russian dancers and a fkn dancing bear with distorted low-quality music was wild. Most bizarre analog-horror type shi I ever seen.

Время, когда люди умели грамотно писать и говорить. Каждое слово диктора понятно, интонации прекрасные и голос приятный. Текст хорошо написан.

What an amazing city Moscow was. This video is time capsule.

0:53, the only man in the US that knows how to name the Anglicised version of 'Moscow'.

I guess the 80s was loved by everyone, even US and USSR would agree to that.

Edit: woah after reading all of the comments. I was waaaay wrong. Sorry guys

I now regret not visiting Russia during the few years when the country had both hope and quality, affordable goods and services. It doesn’t seem likely I’ll see that time again.

Really a melancholy thing to watch.
The USSR fell and any hope of improvement rather vanished. No reforms, no making right of the many, many past wrongs, just a bunch of bitter, still corrupt, impoverished former republics and a USA with no real pressure from anyone to hold back.

As a foreigner it was safeer to visit Moscow back then than today.

Gorbachev's soviet union should've stayed, he was starting to democratise it and make it more free but then yeltsin got rid of him and russia became a dictatorship again :(
