However That Tape Was A Copy Of Another Demo Tape Which Kasparyan Had Brought Back To Leningrad Before The Crash. The Album Was Completed By The Rest Of The Band With The Help Of Producer Yuri Aizenshpis And Released On 12 January 1991 After A Preview In December 1990 Without A Title Though It Is Always Referred As Chornyy Albom Russian For "Black Album" Since It Had A Completely Black Cover With The Band's Logo As Well As A Reference To The Beatles' White Album From 1967. The Demo Version Of The Album Was Released In 2002 Under The Name Последние Записи The Last Recordings . The Band's Popularity In The Soviet Union Was So Extraordinarily High That After Tsoi's Death Many Fences Rocks And Walls In The Whole Country Were Covered With The Words "Цой Жив!" "Tsoi Is Alive!" And "КИНО". Writing These Words Became A Kind Of A Memorial Ritual Among The Fans Of The Band And Even Now New Writings Appear From Time To Time.
