Speaking of things Russian....
A friend ran across this and sent me the link below. It's a band, called The Leningrad Cowboys who are out of Finland. They are performing the classic Lynyrd Skynyrd song, Sweet Home Alabama. Okay, that's not all that uncommon to see a band play a cover. But in this instance, they've added guest performers: The Red Army Choir. Follow the link to read a few details and have a listen.
I have to say, I thought it was pretty good, if, well, odd. At first I saw the clips pass by of the Red Army Choir playing these traditional Russian folk instruments, and it kind of jarred me out of the song temporarily. But when I go back and think on it, I think folk instruments is just about right for Skynyrd. Yeah, these guys are from pretty far north of the Mason-Dixon, and just about half a world away. But I kind of dug it.
