Katarina II's eponymous debut album was thus released in 1984 by RTV Ljubljana's in-house record label ZKP RTLJ. The following year, the band took the offer from fellow musician and RTV Ljubljana's musical director Srđan Marjanović of re-recording their debut album material in the state-owned media company's studios. The recording sessions for the material were completed in Enco Lesić's Druga Maca studio, however, the material was unusable due to a variety of reasons, most of them having to do with the studio's inferior technical equipment. Their material for the debut album material was recorded soon after, featuring guest appearance by actor Svetislav Goncić on tin whistles. In spring 1983, the band took part in Zagreb Biennale, receiving positive reviews.

At the same time, in early 1983, Bojan Pečar (former VIA Talas bassist) joined on bass. The vacant drummer position was filled by Branko 'Mango' Kuštrin (formerly of Grupa I), but after he left within a month, Milan's former bandmate from Šarlo Akrobata Ivan 'VD' Vdović became the new drummer. Shortly after, the rhythm section left with Radomirović joining Du Du A and Dejanović going over to heated rivals Disciplina Kičme. Rounding out Katarina II's inaugural lineup were Dušan Dejanović (another former Limunovo Drvo member) on drums and Zoran 'Švaba' Radomirović on bass guitar.ĭuring late 1982, after their performance at the Topčiderska zvezda cinema, the band was joined by the 23-year-old classically trained pianist Margita Stefanović. Playing music together again after being bandmates a few years earlier at Limunovo Drvo, Mladenović and Mihajlović decided to name their new band Katarina II after Mihajlović's unrequited love - a girl named Katarina. In February 1982, following the disbandment of Šarlo Akrobata, 24-year-old guitarist and vocalist Milan Mladenović decided to form a new band with an old friend - 22-year-old guitarist Gagi Mihajlović.

Katarina mora donijeti odluke koje će odrediti sudbinu njezina prijestolja i carstva.EKV in 1986: Milan Mladenović, Ivan Ranković, Bojan Pečar, and Margita Stefanović. Ali najveća i najvažnija caričina ljubav sama je Rusija. Izgubila je nadu da će imati dijete s knezom Potemkinom. Katarinu i u privatnom životu more brige. Opasnost prijeti i na dvoru: velikaši žele predati prijestolje njezinu najstarijem sinu Pavlu. Seljački ustanak u punom je jeku, pod vodstvom Jemeljana Pugačova, koji se proglasio Petrom III. Pojavljuju se brojni samozvanci koji pretendiraju na prijestolje. Traje rusko-turski rat i prazni carsku riznicu.

Ugrožena je vladavina velike i moćne Katarine. Postat će Katarina Velika! Treća sezona: 1774. Ta ojađena mlada žena puna snage osvajat će zemlje i srca, birati grenadire za ljubavnike, gušiti pobune i održavati veze s istaknutim europskim misliocima. Njezina djevojačka nevinost nestaje u razvratnosti, blagu narav zamjenjuje hladni bijes, a svoju usamljenost preusmjerava u težnju za moći. Mašta o ljubavi, ali car više voli ratne igre i slabo ga zanimaju žene. Kći osiromašenog pruskog kneza sprema se udati za budućeg ruskog cara Petra III.
