Gorbachev—one of Russia’s most simultaneously reverenced and reviled political figures—recently showed his tender side by recording an album of romantic ballads. Sold exclusively at a charitable auction, it’s unavailable to the general public, but thanks to us and the internet, you are now welcome to sneak-peek of some musical glasnost.
