Background and recording

The album was recorded from September 4–7, 1975 in Akademik Studio in Ljubljana, with the exception of the blues track "Negde daleko", recorded on the band's performance in Belgrade's Hala sportova on January 2, 1974. The album featured guest appearances by S Vremena Na Vreme member Ljuba Ninković and keyboardist and composer Sloba Marković.

"Rekvijem za prijatelja", with lyrics written by Ljuba Ninković, was dedicated to Predrag Jovičić, the singer of the band San, who died from an electric shock on a concert in Čair Sports Center in Niš. The album featured a new version of the song "Zemlja svetlosti", previously released on a 7" single.

Covers

gollark: Astral Sorcery has something which can freeze nearby mobs. It appears to work on chaos guardians.
gollark: So I don't like it, and I don't want to do the boring thing of making draconic armor and using its "literally unable to die" capabilities.
gollark: That was a rhetorical question which you were expected to answer in some way. Regardless, I will keep expositing.
gollark: Well, you know how DE has the chaos guardian, which is bad?
gollark: MUAHAHAHAHA.
