Background

After the release of their fourth studio album Što [te tata pušta samu] in 1988, Griva went on their last Yugoslav tour, ending their activity at the beginning of 1990. After Griva disbanded, Karavla dedicated himself to work in studio and writing songs for Serbian folk singers. In 1991, he started recording the studio album Pij, jedi, veseli se..., the recording of which, due to the outbreak of Yugoslav wars, lasted for more than year and a half, with former Griva members and other musicians taking part in the recording process. Karavla released the material under the Griva moniker in 1992 for the independent label Megaton.
