In June 1987 Banjac, as guitarist and vocalist, reformed Amajlija with bassist Zoran "Gera" Gerić and drummer Zoran "Petrija" Petrić. The band performed on numerous youth work actions and as an opening act on the Vojvodina tours of the bands Film, Kerber and Griva. At the time, the band wrote their first hit songs, "Požuri druže" ("Hurry Up, Comrade") and "Dobar drug" ("Good Friend"). However, Banjac decided to disband the band and record the material for Amajlija's debut album alone, with the help of guitarist Zoran "Anka" Ančić, who also produced the album, and sound engineer Milan Ćirić, a former Čista Proza member. The album Samo ti (Only You) was released in 1989 through Diskoton. In order to promote the album, Banjac formed the new Amajlija lineup, consisting of himself, Petar Krstić (vocals), Zoran Aničić (guitar), Slobodan Većkalov (bass guitar), Dejan Starčević (keyboard) and Julije Dondo (drums).
