Obywatel G.C. was a Polish supergroup band created by Polish rock musician Grzegorz Ciechowski. The band was formed in 1986, after Ciechowski attempted to pursue a solo career after breaking up with another band called Republika. The group had different musicians from different genres, chosen by Ciechowski as the best jazz men and rockers in Poland. These people were Jan Borysewicz,[1] one of the founders of Lady Pank, Wojciech Karolak, a notable jazz and blues musician, Krzysztof Ścierański, bass guitarist, and José Torres, a Cuban-Polish drummer. In total, they have had a total of 5 LPs and several singles. The band became notable in 1988 with the album Tak! Tak!, which had at the most 300,000 copies circulating and was awarded a gold disc. The band was disbanded in 1992, when Ciechowski reentered Republika.
