Hey August!
 
AA> Does anyone know the significance of the reference to
AA> "Muskova down to Gorky Park" in the song by the Scorpions?
 
AA> Is the song an anti-war message?
 
AA> what is the Muskova (a river?) and what happened at Gorky Park?
AA> I seem to recall that there was a movie called Gorky Park;
AA> is there a connection?
 
 
>> "Wind Of Change" is about what's happening in the world,
>> what's happening in Germany with the Berlin Wall coming down....
 
 
AA> Fantastic!   Much thanks.   Now that I see this, I remember
AA> where I was when I heard news about the Berlin wall coming down.
AA> I also seem to remember that the Wind of Change must have been
AA> getting air  play about that time as well.
 
Yes.... but since the Moskva and Gorky Park are in Moscow, the song
seems to be more about the Moscow Music Peace Festival. :)
 
Do you know much about the Scorpions? I looked for information about
the movie Gorky Park. Have you seen it?
 
Keep Rocking!
