Biography

Apelsin is a jazz group, formed in 1974 in Tallinn. Record labels: Melodiya. The discography here lists 9 albums, from “Apelsin” (1978) to “Kauge hüüd” (2012).

Apelsin (Estonian for orange) was an Estonian band created in 1974. Their lyrics are in Estonian and Russian. During the Soviet era, their LP albums were issued by the Soviet music monopoly Melodiya. The Russian name of the band was Апельсин. In both Estonian and Russian, the band's name means orange. Many songs and much of the music of the band are satirical. The band's combining music with humor (both onstage and offstage) was one of the reasons the band had become one of the most popular Estonian bands of all time. In 2016, a book about the band, Tsepeliini triumf: Eesti rock 1970. aastatel (Zeppelin's Triumph: Estonian Rock in the 1970s), was published.
