Korni Grupa was one of the first bands to move away from the 1960s rhythm and blues sound. Formed in 1968 by Kornelije Kovač, the band had gone through many lineup changes and featured many famous musicians, including vocalists Dušan Prelević, Dalibor Brun, Dado Topić, Zdravko Čolić and Zlatko Pejaković. The band gained mainstream popularity with their simple pop-oriented songs, but moved towards progressive rock after they were joined by singer Dado Topić. Nevertheless, the band continued to record pop-oriented songs and represented Yugoslavia at the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Moja generacija". In 1973, the band, under the name Kornelyans, released the symphonic rock-oriented English language album "Not An Ordinary Life". Korni Grupa disbanded shortly after, but reunited in 1987 to perform at the Legende YU Rocka ("Legends of YU Rock") concerts.
