Gennady Bogdanov Biography Wikipedia
Danil Vladimirovich Doluzhnikov Army time about two years spent in the ranks of the army the guy never spared and remembered with a smile on his face. By the will of fate, Bogdanov went to serve in the unit located near Leningrad. The first hundred and eighty days for Gennady merged, as if in one and reminiscent of each other to the smallest detail. During this time, he could recall only a few holidays, which at least somehow diversified the monotony and allowed him to perform a song on the accompaniment of a guitar on an impromptu scene.
One of the concerts was attended by the authorities, who, having heard the performance, urgently ordered the guy to transfer the guy to a military orchestra. Among the lucky ones who were taken from military service and transferred almost to civilization, there were many interesting people. Among them are not only musicians, but also actors and artists.
Subsequently, many of them became famous art in the world, and Bogdanov himself maintained friendship and warm relations, even after the end of his service life. It is worth noting that by the time Bogdanova, the team managed to change many compositions by the time of coming to it. Ultimately, the group entered into an agreement on cooperation with Viktor Reznikov, known in the Soviet Union by the composer.
Gennady Bogdanov, over the next two years, Bogdanov sang such hits as “Nedotog” and “Ice” created by Reznikov. After many years, the songs fell into the repertoire of such pop stars as Vladimir Presnyakov and Larisa Dolina. Glory, which came to the members of the Marathon group, nevertheless, did not give Gennady Yuryevich freedom for independent development and limited in many endeavors.
In addition, the main repertoire consisted of Reznik's works, which made it very monotonous. By this time, Gennady began to write his own songs, which in the team, as it turned out, did not interest anyone. After the composition of Bogdanov “Stone Rain” in the year received first place in the rating of the Hit Parade of the newspaper publication “Shift”, the musician decided to leave the group.
Gennady, shortly before this event, met with Vladimir Kiselev, ex-Baster of the Earthlings group, who suggested that the musician create his own team. Bogdanov did not think for a long time and agreed. After some time, fans of the musician already enjoyed such hits from a new group as "Russians go" and "a woman who I'm afraid." In the year, the composition called “Well, what” performed by the “Russians” group became the winner at the contest “Song of the Year”.
Thanks to this cooperation, the team was able to perform not only on the domestic stage, but also abroad. However, after the public representing the second studio album of the group between Kiselev and Bogdanov, a scandal erupted, forcing the latter to refuse to work. With the departure of one of the founders, the Russian group literally lost its face and the project gradually “died”.
At the same time, the Russians group more than once reminded of itself in the creative biography of the musician. In the year, Bogdanov tried to resume the work of the team, but everything stopped after several joint concerts. Five years later, Gennady made a second attempt to reanimate the team, but gathered completely new musicians, most of whom were much younger than him.
Since the year, fans of the musician have seen his group at all New Year events, as well as concerts in the retro style. At the same time, the group did not achieve the previous glory. Life after a conflict with Kiselev occurred, Gennady moved to Moscow. After some time, he managed to sign a contract with Gala Records and by the year to present fans for another album with solo compositions.
It was a disk called “Holding the Cross”, which preceded the new version of the album “Russians” with the tracks of already famous listeners. The projects did not receive the expected success and Bogdanov changed his family, devoting himself to writing songs for Alexei Glyzin, Sergey Burmistrov, Anatoly Mogilev, Grigory Leps and Barbara. The main genre direction in the work of that period was ballads.
Grigory Leps in the development of the creative career of one of the most popular Russian pop performers Grigory Leps Bogdanov played a decisive role. They met in the early nineties. Then Leps worked in one of the Sochi restaurants and in the evenings took fatigue and stress with alcohol. Bogdanov created a number of compositions for the future scene star, which later entered the first solo album of Lepsa, named “Sochi”.
Over time, in the repertoire of Grigory Viktorovich, the hit of Bogdanov was “so what”, which he first performed before the restaurant public. Bogdanov and Leps signed a contract, and a new arrangement was written for the old hit. It is worth noting here that the contract has expired many years ago, but the composition still occupies a prominent place in the repertoire of the performer.
And other singers more than once sang this composition at their concerts.According to Bogdanov’s admission, he has long ceased to follow who and when sings his song, since there were too many performers. This composition seems to live his own life, and Bogdanov only notes its development and movement. The personal life of the spouse, and then the children in the personal life of the musician and the composer appeared quite early.

The couple noted the next anniversary of the wedding and congratulated each other on a strong relationship, recalling the path traveled together. Gennady Bogdanov with the wife of the fate of her husband and wife are tightly intertwined and supplemented by the fate of their children.
The first child in the family was born in the year - son Eugene. Gennady Bogdanov now in the year fans of Bogdanov’s work have been able to listen to a disk with his solo songs, which was called “Lefty”. Only ten years later, the following disc appeared in his creative biography with the sentimental notes of "the eye of your lake changed the world." There are thirteen melodies in the album, and a video clip is even taken to one of them.
