Divlje Jagode were formed in 1977 in [[BihaćZagreb]], [[Bosnia and HerzegovinaCroatia]] by guitarist [[Zele Lipovača|Sead "Zele" Lipovača]] (a former "Biseri", "Selekcija" and "Zenit" member). A very talented guitar player from his early years, Lipovača was what was considered to be a local wonderkid. He was 22 years old when he formed the band. The first Divlje Jagode lineup consisted of vocalist Ante "Toni "Janković, bass guitarist Nihad Jusufhodžić (a former "Zenit" member), keyboardist Mustafa Ismailovski (a former "Grešnici" member) and drummer Adonis Dokuzović (a former "Novi Akordi" member).<ref>Duraković, Jasmina (7 February 2012).

Retrieved 14 April 2012.</ref> The band achieved high popularity with their first singles: rock ballads "Jedina moja" and "Patkica" and a cover of Bosnian [[folk music|folk]] song "[[Moj dilbere]]". In 1978 they released their debut self-titled album ''Divlje Jagode'' ("Wild Strawberries"), which featured, among others, a number of [[Deep Purple]] and [[Black Sabbath]] inspired songs, a new version of ballad "Jedina moja" and song "Krivo je more", the two of which became huge hits, and remained so, until today. The album was released by [[Jugoton]], then the largest record label and chain record store in [[Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia|the country]]. After the album was released, the band made a break because of part of the band members' army obligations. Ismailovski joined the band "Srebrna Krila", and Lipovača, alongside Marina Tucaković, worked on music for popular regional [[disco]] band "Mirzino Jato".

In 1980, Divlje Jagode continued their activity with the new lineup: Janković, Lipovača, drummer Nasko Budimlić and bass guitarist, then relatively unknown, [[Alen Islamović]]. Unsatisfied by their previous record label's work in promotion of their first album, Lipovača makes a decision to move to [[Sarajevo]], and to local major record label, [[Diskoton]]. With the new lineup, the band recorded their second album, entitled ''Stakleni Hotel'' ("Glass Hotel"), which marked their complete shift towards [[Heavy metal music|heavy metal]]. The album was recorded in [[Belgrade]], and released through Diskoton in February 1981. The album was produced by Lipovača and Enco Lesić. The songs' lyrics were written by Elvis J. Kurtovich, Goran Petranović, Marina Tucaković and Islamović. The album's biggest hits were "Autostop" and ballads "Dodirni me, skloni bol" and "Potraži put". On the tour that followed the album release, Divlje Jagode played around one hundred concerts. The most famous concert of the tour was in September, at the ''Belgrade Hippodrome'', where Divlje Jagode played alongside one of the most popular bands in the entire region, [[Bijelo Dugme]], and British heavy metal band [[Iron Maiden]], who played there for the first time in this region.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://jugosvirke.wordpress.com/2012/08/21/iron-maiden-u-beogradu-1981-first-yugoslavian-tour-of-a-famous-band/|title=IRON MAIDEN u Beogradu 1981 – First Yugoslav tour of a famous band|website=Jugosvirke.wordpress.com|date=21 August 2012|access-date=5 October 2020}}</ref>
