The crucial moment of their career was the year 1978.

Polski Blues - Kasa Chorych

W 1975 roku dwójka nawiedzonych bluesem muzyków z Białegostoku - Ryszard "Skiba" Skibiński i Jarosław Tioskow - postanowiła założyć zespół zgodny z ich muzycznymi fascynacjami. Po kilku tygodniach dołączył do nich perkusista Mirosław Kozioł. Wkrótce zaprosili do współpracy kolegów i pod nazwą Kasa Chorych-Blues wystartowali w 1976 r. pod patronatem białostockiego Akademickiego Centrum Kultury. W skład grupy wchodzili wówczas: R. Skibiński (ur. 20.01.1951 r., zm. 4.06.1983 r.; hca, kazoo), J. Tioskow (ur. 30.07.1955 r.;g); Andrzej Kotarski (g); Zbigniew Richter (bg); Andrzej Pala (p); M. Kozioł (ur. 5.04.1954 r.; dr). Niebawem, dzięki współpracy z Miejskim Domem Kultury, zespół otrzymał nowy sprzęt oraz dogodne warunki do pracy. W tym okresie jego działalność koncertowa skupiała się przede wszystkim w miejscowych klubach "Herkulesy" i "Promenada". W 1977 roku grupa wystąpiła w ramach akcji "Chełm 80".
