Few will remember Lyudmila Barykina's appearance, but her voice is known to millions. She replaced Alla Pugacheva in the VIA "Vesyolye Rebyata" (Jolly Fellows) and sang the legendary "Papa, Gave Me a Doll" and "Ukholo Leto" (Summer Was Gone). Until recently, bedridden, Lyudmila Barykina performed on Andrey Malakhov's program. But on December 3, 2023, the singer passed away after a leg amputation. She passed away at the age of seventy, leaving behind a vibrant legacy—her voice, talent, and spirit—in the music of several renowned Soviet ensembles.
