Amajlija

Amajlija is a Serbian and Yugoslav rock band formed in Novi Sad in 1979. Led by vocalist and guitarist Bogoljub "Čombe" Banjac, Amajlija reached the peak of popularity in the late 1980s and early 1990s with their melodic hard rock sound.

History
The band was formed in 1979 by Bogoljub "Čombe" Banjac (vocals), Boško "Čvaja" Plaćkov (bass guitar), Predrag "Čole" Čoka (drums)— all three being former members of the band 'Oćeš-Nećeš (Want It or Not)— Slobodan "Veća" Većkalov (guitar) and Tomislav "Čvaja" Milei (rhythm guitar). Initially, the band performed cover versions of songs by The Rolling Stones, Riblja Čorba and Azra, and slowly prepared their own material. In the same year, the band was joined by contortionist Petar "Pera Gumeni" Krsić, whose primary role in the band was of a showman. The album Samo ti (Only You) was released in 1989 through Diskoton and brought the minor hits "Požuri druže" ("Hurry Up, Comrade") and "Dobar drug" ("Good Friend"). In 2019, the band released the single "Veruj" ("Believe Me"). Amajlija's forming member Slobodan "Veća" Većkalov died on 5 July 2020. ==Discography==
