Ladislav Štaidl: Poslední z mohykánů – Remešová Michaela (2021)

The "Big Four" - Karel Gott, Karel Svoboda, and brothers Ladislav and Jiří Štaidl. These four shaped the direction of domestic music for several decades, producing hit after hit, selling out concert halls, and selling hundreds of thousands of records. When Štaidl and Gott literally took down American Las Vegas at the end of the 1960s, it was clear that they had a truly star-studded career ahead of them. And although musician Štaidl was always somewhat of a behind-the-scenes man, it was he who guided the Nightingale to where he ultimately ended up, who wrote countless hits for him, and who always stood behind him with his orchestra. He was an elegant man, a lover of women, antiques, and paintings, a shrewd and tough businessman, somewhat of a schemer, and a good father. In the end, however, from the star-studded team, he was left alone. Like the last Mohican... A book by two experienced authors - Michaela Remešová and Roman Schuster - tells about his life, his successes, and occasional downfalls. It is as readable as their books about Karel Gott, Jiřina Jirásková, Jana Brejchová, and others.
