Zaveštanje (Serbian Cyrillic: Завештање, lit. "Legacy") is a single by Dragutin Knežević Krunica, released some time in 1993 by Fond Giška. It is one of few war-related albums relating to founding Serbian Guard member Đorđe Božović Giška.
Background
In 1992, after the death of Giška, a fund, "Fond komandantu srpske garde Đorđa Božovića" was set up in his honor.[1] The fund was advertised in the publication, Srpska reč for four volumes (roughly two months) until Drašković's second arrest.[2]
Release
Zaveštanje was released some time in 1993 by Fond Giška. Its only known advertisement would be featured in a single issue of Srpska reč.[3] The single has ten speeches with four speeches on the A side and six speeches on the B side. The author of these speeches and board member of the fund, Uroš D. Urošević,[4] would perform the third and tenth speech (dubbed "legacies" on the inner j-card) on the single. The background music provided for these speeches are from other songs from Krunica's discography, most notably from his poem recitals heard in Srpska zora and Srpska zora-2. Much like the label's previous release, Slava junaku, this not only features social commentary on the state of affairs in Yugoslavia, but also acts as a memorial for Giška.
The cover art is a mirrored picture taken from a baptism in a Medak church. The image is one of the last pictures taken of Giška before he died.[5]
The album would fade into obscurity following its release. Although a site dedicated to Krunica was founded and featured works both found and lost from him in the early 2000's, Zaveštanje was never featured nor mentioned on the site. A lot showcasing the single's cover was discovered, though it would not be until 2024 where user RandomAtribute20k would obtain a copy and post its contents online.
