Plevitskomania
[edit]According to Jahn (p. 100), "This self-made singer of rural background was instrumental in displacing the gypsy craze with the patriotic and sentimental songs of village life in the prewar years... As one of the first Russian gramophone stars, she had the largest audience of any estrada [variety show] artist of the time, triggering a 'Plevitskomania' all over the country and among all social strata. During the war, Plevitskaya, like some of her colleagues, volunteered as a nurse for a couple of months, and on her own time she appeared in her Red Cross outfit and sang folk songs in hospitals for the wounded. Her recordings were played in gramophones in the trenches, on warships, and in officers' messes, offering nostalgic dreams of homey villages and peasant kitchens."
- And rightly so; some of her records are actually available online [1] (esp. 2nd song, classic Luchinushka). My very best wishes (talk) 05:06, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
Doubtful
[edit]The idea that Plevitskaya was chauffeured around by NKVD people is somewhat fanciful, but there is a lot of contradictory information around about Plevitskaya and Skoblin. To his last day in Paris, Skoblin was part of the veteran organisations and both would have avoided being openly linked to Stalin's secret service. What is described here would have been too obvious. More importantly, however, Skoblin owned a car. The fact that someone wrote it in a book, does not make it fact. In my Plevitskaya studies, I have seen a lot of contradictory information. 144.136.176.196 (talk) 04:12, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
