Koncert kod Hajdučke česme (styled koncert kod hajduccke ccesme on the cover, trans. The Concert at Hajdučka česma) is the first live album by former Yugoslav rock band Bijelo Dugme, released in 1977. The album's title refers to the band's famous concert played on August 28, 1977 near Hajdučka česma grounds at Košutnjak Park in Belgrade, however, the material on the record is only partially recorded at the said event.
The album was polled in 1998 as the 74th on the list of 100 greatest Yugoslav rock and pop albums in the book YU 100: najbolji albumi jugoslovenske rok i pop muzike (YU 100: The Best Albums of Yugoslav Pop and Rock Music).[1]
Background
During the promotional tour for the band's third studio album, Eto! Baš hoću!, released in 1976, Bijelo Dugme experienced numerous difficulties, from clashes within the band, over technical problems, to small interest of the audience.[2] After four years spent at the top of the former Yugoslav rock scene, the band saw a decrease in popularity.[2] The band members wanted to organize some sort of spectacle to help their decreased popularity.[2] On the idea of journalist Peca Popović, the band decided to hold a free concert at Belgrade's Hajdučka česma.[2]
The concert, held on August 28, 1977, was also Bijelo Dugme's last concert before the band went on hiatus due to the band's leader Goran Bregović's army duty.[2] Between 70,000 and 100,000 spectators attended the concert, which was the biggest number of spectators on a rock concert in Yugoslavia until then.[2] After the opening bands (Zdravo, Tako, Leb i Sol, and several others) Bijelo Dugme played a successful concert.[2] However, after disappointingly realizing the concert recording sounded bad on tape due to technical limitations and the wide open space, the band played another show at Đuro Đaković Hall in Sarajevo on October 25, 1977, which is the actual performance heard on the album.[2] In the end, the only part of original Hajdučka česma concert that ended up on the album were the crowd reactions after each song.[2]
Koncert kod Hajdučke česme would be the band's last album with the drummer Ipe Ivandić and the keyboardist Laza Ristovski before they rejoined the band in 1982 and 1984 respectively, as the two decided to leave the band after the release of their album Stižemo (Here We Come) in 1978.[2]
