Drugi Nacin ("Another Way") ExYu Band

Band 'Drugi Nacin' ("Another Way") was formed in Zagreb, (former Yugoslavia) Croatia, by members of the band called 'Zlatni Akordi' ("Gold Accords"). 'Zlatni Akordi' was first renamed to 'Novi Akordi' ("New Accords"), and from October 1974 to 'Drugi Nacin' ("Another Way"). The members of original band were Branko Pozgajec (vocals, keyboards, flute, and composer), Halil Mekic (guitar), Zeljko Mikulcic (bass), Ismet Kurtovic (vocals, guitar, flute, and composer) and Boris Turina (drums, lyrics). At the end of 1976 the band split-up, so Ismet Kurtovic and Halil Mekic formed a short-lived off-shoot band 'Nepocin' which released only one album. The band 'Drugi Nacin' re-formed in 1978, and recording several singles and second LP which did not repeat the success of the debut, so the band restricted its activity to only occasional concerts during the 1980s and gradually retired from the ExYu rock and roll scene. Pozgajec re-formed the band in 1992 again recording third album with re-recorded old songs from their 70s singles. In May 2000 'Drugi Nacin' appeared as a support group on the 'Jethro Tull' concert in Zagreb.


Drugi Nacin (album)

This is the self-titled debut of a Croatian progressive rock band. The album is conceptual about loneliness. This album was reissued on CD together with their second album. There is a strong Jethro Tull and Deep Purple influence but they sound unique because of the ethnic flavor. The music is not very complex (at least for a progressive rock album) but the flutes and vocal harmonies create a magical atmosphere especially in standout tracks as "Stari grad" (“Old Town”) and "Na mom dlanu" (“On my hand”), which is similar to Deep Purple's "Child in Time". Double guitar solos and folk melodies, as well as the contents of conceptual album about loneliness, also reminds on Wishbone Ash's Argus.
