Jacek Kaczmarski (March 22, 1957, Warsaw - April 10, 2004, Gdańsk) was a Polish singer, songwriter, poet and author.
Kaczmarski was considered by many to be the voice of the anti-communist Solidarity movement in the 1980s, for his commitment to a free Poland, independent of Soviet rule. His songs criticized the ruling regime and appealed to the tradition of patriotic resistance within Poles. He remains best known for his protest songs on social and political subjects (“Mury” (Walls), “Obława” (Wolf hunt)). However, he was more a poet than a political singer, and his texts have not lost their meaning with the demise of the Soviet union and its communist block.
He made his debut in 1977 at the Student Song Festival, where he was awarded first prize for his work “Obława” (Wolf hunt) based on song “Охота на волков” by Vladimir Vysotsky. In 1980 he won Second prize at the Opole Song Festival for “Epitafium dla Włodzimierza Wysockiego” (Epitaph for Vladimir Vysotsky).
Kaczmarski chose to emigrate after the imposition of the martial law in Poland in 1981, and would not be allowed to return until 1990. From 1982 he was an editor and journalist with Radio Free Europe, with his own radio program, A Quarter with Jacek Kaczmarski.
After his return to Poland (following the Round Table negotiations that brought and end to communist rule) he toured the country with his friend and artist Zbigniew Łapiński.

Face the truth. Osoby używające wulgarnych i raczej zabawnych stwierdzeń to trolle. Był pijakiem i bił żonę, ale można napisać to normalnie ze względu na szacunek do zmarłych czy z poszanowania twórczości. Ktoś nauczył się 3 nowych słów i skopiował dalej. Cały "thread" zaczął się od pisania jakiś bzdur na temat jego muzyki. A niektórzy nie mogą się powstrzymać od "odgryzienia" zniżając się do poziomu. Uderz w stół, a nożyce..

Osoba mówiąca prawdę jest według was trollem? Face the truth, Kaczmarski był nieciekawym człowiekiem (mam na myśli jego jako ojca i męża) i niewybitnie niezwykłym artystą. Miejcie dystans, ludzie. Znam jego twórczość i nawet ją szanuję, a co więcej uważam, że spełnił swoją rolę w dziejach Polski. Ale bez fanatycznej afirmacji, bo to nie świadczy dobrze o człowieku.

It's actually quite difficult to buy Jacek's music in France. One may find Kosmopolak and Dzieci Hioba on iTunes Store, but that's all. When you come to think he wrote over 1000 songs... That's not much. Thankfully Youtube exists, but strangely enough I'd be really glad to pay for and really possess music I love.
