Sweet tone options, a simple poem, a harmonious music simultaneously making songs Koes Plus good to hear and hard to beat in the music blantika Indonesia.
Koes Plus is the most legendary musical groups in Indonesia. Dozens of songs, even hundreds, of birth of this musical group, from which version of the pop, pop of Java, rhythm melayu, dangdut, pop kids, English language songs, rhythm keroncong, folk song, and the hard beat. Recently, his name immortalized as a music group with the most songs in Indonesian Record Museum (MURI).
Their songs are not the type of complex songs like the old songs from Genesis, Deep Purple or Queen or pop songs of today. They are really simple song both in poetry, music, and melody. His trademark sound is a combination of their vocalist (Yon and Yok) is typical. Their songs still remain popular to this day. In fact, many performed by another singer with the new arrangement. For example Lex's trio made a special album to sing birthday songs Koes Plus, Opa Pass T'lah re sung by Tim Christensen, sugar and honey brought by Jasmine Trias. Until now Koes Plus still exist even if only 2 members (Yon and Murry) active plus other musicians from the outside. But mostly they just sing the old songs. In a ceremony commemorating the RCTI Koes Plus (circa 1995), one of the board of directors named Eugene Remaco Timothy (who recorded many songs Koes Plus) said that until now no group-beat music like Koes Plus beatnya. Maybe he wanted to say that the songs are simple Koes Plus is an easy rhythm to follow and pleasant. Koes Plus fans have waited in front of the TVRI (at that time no private TV) to find out that Koes Plus will appear on television shows. The group was formed in 1969, as a continuation of the Koes Brothers. Koes Brothers became the pioneer of pop music and rock 'n roll, even been in jail since his music is supposed to represent the flow of capitalist politics. At that time-garangnya were fierce anti-capitalist movement in Indonesia.
Of this group born Koes Brothers songs are very popular as School Bus, In The Bui, Lake Lonely, my own songs and much more. One member of the Koes Brothers, Nomo Koeswoyo Murry came out and was replaced as the drummer. Although the replacement was originally a problem in one of his personal Yok who objected to outsiders. Brothers name is replaced with a Plus etc., plus it means outsiders: the songs Murry.Sebenarnya Koes Brothers better in terms of harmonization (such as the song Lonely Pond, Goddess Rin or School Bus) than the songs Koes Plus. At the time Nomo, but music will also have a side job. While the totality of Tonny wanted to make music that Nomo had to choose. Koes Brothers eventually had to change. Koes Plus group led by the late Tonny Koeswoyo (the oldest member of the family Koeswoyo). Koes Plus and Koes Brothers should be recorded as a pioneer of pop music in Indonesia. It's hard to imagine the history of pop music without the presence of our brothers and Koes Koes Plus.Tradisi the song of creation itself is a tradition created Koes Brothers. Later this tradition is continued with the album Koes Plus serial volumes 1, 2 and so on. Once formed, Koes Plus does not directly get sympathy from Indonesian music lovers. Record her first album had rejected several record stores. They even laugh at bat song is really fun.
Murry then got cranky and went to Jember while handing out a record album for free on his friends. He worked in sugar mills all band together through group Gombloh Lemon Trees. Tonny which followed Murry to be invited back to Jakarta. Only after the song played in the RRI Bats and people looking for their first album Koes Plus. Some time later through the songs of Woe, Back to Jakarta, Malam Ini, Interest on Bank Street until the song Love Blind, Koes Plus music dominate Indonesia at that time.
Group-another group of contemporaries such as Favorites, Jasmine Trias, Mercy's, D'Lloyd made Koes Plus as a mecca. Group-group so that it always imitate what Koes Plus. Like making a pop album outside Indonesia, such as pop and pop melayu Java becomes a trend other group-group after Koes Plus started.
"If this group were born in the UK or the U.S. is not likely to shift the popularity of the Beatles"
Lagu Nusantara I (Volume 5), Oh My love (Volume 6), Mari-Mari (Volume 7), Diana and Massage Milk (Volume 8) ruled the pop music at that time. Koes Plus glory peak occurs when they issued the album Volume 9 with a very famous song Young-Mudi (created Koeswoyo, father of Tonny, Yon and Yok). Followed by a song Bachelors and When-When the volume 10. Still continues with songs from the album Archipelago Volume V 11 and Love Blind from the album Volume 12. At the same time also issued Koes Plus Java pop album with a song known by pedicab driver, mother a housewife, hinga young children, the Tul Jaenak and Ojo Nelongso. Not to mention the rhythm of their songs such as Why wilt, Love, Honor and the song titled keroncongnya old singer. Too bad in every album that they spend no documentation of months and years, so difficult to track down a specific album released what year. In fact, there are no words other introduction. Just recorded their album on a regular basis starting volume VIII after the contract was signed with Remaco. Previous record company of their albums are Dimita.
In the year 1972-1976 Indonesian air was filled with songs Koes Plus. Both the radio or the party always carry a song Koes Plus. Perhaps no people of Indonesia, then still a teenager who does not know Koes Plus. Whenever Koes Plus issued a new album is always eagerly awaited lovers Koes Plus and the general public.
Koes Plus 1972 years could be the best band in the Band Jamboree in Senayan. All the participants sang Western songs in English. Koes Plus only dared to be different with pain and sang sweet and dear.
From the information that is sent a fan Koes Plus Koes Plus achievements were indeed remarkable. In 1974 Koes Plus issued 22 albums including the instrumental album. So they average out 2 albums in a month. In 1975 there are 6 albums. Then in 1976 they released 10 albums. Perhaps it is noteworthy record in the Guinness Book of Records. And incredibly, their songs are not songs so long, but it was almost all good to hear.

• Koes Plus in the heyday - vol 9
One member of Koes Plus said that they paid very expensive in its heyday. Yon said that in 1975 they played in Semarang. "It was in 1975, we have paid USD 3 million during a gig in Semarang," he recalled. In fact, when the price of a car in 1975 Corona approximately USD 3.750 million. If the current fee dikurs is roughly equivalent to Rp 150 million. (Suara Merdeka, May 4, 2001)
''At that time, USD $ 3.5 million is very high, given the new sedan USD 3 million. If Converted amounts shown with the value of money now, the number was equal to USD 200 million to USD 300 million. The number of spectators was not as abundant now,''recalled Yon. (Suara Merdeka 23, October 2001).
After that popularity began to dim Koes Plus. Perhaps because the generation has changed and his music tastes changed. Koes Plus vacuum while and came back to replace Nomo Murry, in the late 1976's. Koes Brothers formed again and immediately popular with the song that came out back in 1977. Joint group, Murry Murry's Group also kicked off with the song enough Mamiku-papiku. Did not last long back in 1978 formed Koes Plus. His new song, Select One also immediately popular. After it came out love songs, with orchestra arrangement, which is completely different with the song Koes Plus others. Then wilt popular album also includes songs they Pinch-pinch and Panah Asmara. Koes Plus but this generation is no longer as popular as before. Although, if you listened to the songs that were born after 1978, many of their songs are good.
Koes Plus fate is very tragic. As Yon said one time that Koes Plus only big names but do not have anything. This was indeed fit to represent the state personnel Koes Plus. They do not get money from the sale of cassettes that contain the old songs they were. Unlike the singers / musicians present lifestyles well as the financial terms of earnings as a singer / musician is guaranteed. So did the former group-renowned group like the Beatles, or Led Zeppelin, they live comfortably royalties only from the tape / VCD / CD / DVD hasilkan.Sampai their children and their wives were enjoying this financial abundance.
Koes Plus they pay only once for each album to be produced. There are no royalties, no additional fee for each CD / cassette sold. So no surprise when in 1992, Yon must agate sales to support his household. While tapes and CDs are still best-selling song in Indonesia. Even now at the age of 63, Yon and his colleagues (Murry several times did not appear because of illness) with a Koes Plus must perform to earn money. With the remnants of their voice and power to sell voice and energy. Yon did not feel as grateful beban.Dia still loved the song. But we are sorry to hear news like this.
Thanks to the info Susilo Wasis Koes Plus album, Ferry Dwinanto, Mas Ramzis Chandra, the image Ismono Oky Plusnya Koes and other friends of Koes Plus fan club who could not mention one by one.
Until now there are many group-group conservationists Koes songs on across the nation
