About 200 people came to see Alexander Chernetsky on his last trip - colleagues, relatives, friends and fans. Among them were Chizh (Sergei Chigrakov), and Yuri Shevchuk, the leader of DDT. Chigrakov and Chernetsky met in the late 1980s in Kharkiv, played together in the “Extended Day Group” and recorded the album Comeback in the 2000s.
The loss of the musician was especially difficult for his wife Inna. The coffin was seen off to loud applause. At the same time, Chernetsky was buried in a sweater of the USSR - at his performances he could often be seen in it.
Chernetsky from his youth suffered from Bekhterev's disease, underwent several operations, often sang sitting, but did not leave the stage. He moved to St. Petersburg in 1999 and recreated Kharkiv “Different People” with a new composition: Nail Kadyrov, Boris Shaveinikov, Andrei “Hudoy” Vasilyev joined the team. Later, Vadim Kurylev, Pavel Borisov, Mikhail Nefyodov, Igor Oistrakh played in the group.
