VA ~ Laos: Lam Saravane - Musique pour le khène [Ocora, 1989] 320 / FLAC







C 559 058/ HM83

1. Nang Soubane Vongath & Sengphet Souryavongxay - Lam saravane
2. Nuothong Phimvilayphone - Nam phat khay
3. Khangdeuk
4. Khene
5. Mengphou tom dokmay
6. Pao sat

The vocal art lam [the dominant form in Laos] and the khen mouth organ [the national instrument], performed here by exceptional musicians. Refined classical music popular for its lively swing

one of the freshest laotian jams around, particularly the majestic mouth organ dronery of the resplendent nuothong phimvilayphone. owlwaze thought phimvilayphone would make a sweet name fer a record label, but anyway, we loves this ish. made possible by a joint effort from friendlies miguel & arvind
