Yuri Shatunov’s reason for death:
yuri died of a heart attack at the age of 48. Shatunov performed in sold-out stadiums in the entire Soviet Union at the end of the 1980s. Shatunov performed in-band Laskovy Mai (‘Gentle May’), as the leading man.
Some of his most popular numbers were Belye Rozi (‘White Roses’) and Sedaya Noch (‘Grey Night’). Russian viewers of that age can definitely relate to the rage he had in the 1980s.
Shtunov tried to become a solo starter after separating from the band, although he could never match the similar heights of fame.
