New enough, long enough, well referenced. Most sources are in Russian, but English-language sources do not show close paraphrasing. A question: Using the Russian-language name stated in the lead, I was unable to find his name on the Honorary List in footnote 14. Regarding the hook, I would add a title like "singer" before his name to identify him. I like the original hook the best, with Tokarev's interesting-looking mustache in the picture. Image is freely licensed. ALT2 and ALT3 don't really make sense, as his given name isn't Vladimir, so I'm striking them. QPQ done. Yoninah (talk) 20:39, 29 November 2014 (UTC)

I've added "singer" before his name.
