Oum Kaltsoum's song from 1926 and the wonderful "Baghdad" by Ilham al-Madfai.
agreed! for me, both resonate with current times.
btw the yodelling chaps are from georgia, (not madagacar).
thanks for your 'more on madagascar' link johncorrigan!
very welcome.

There was something quite delightful in finding, while listening to Jarvis on Sunday afternoon that Captain Beefheart and Ivor Cutler shared the same birthday. Couldn't help thinking what an interesting birthday party that would make.

even though Ivor Novello didn't write it he might have done. And they would certainly have performed a version at the birthday party.
And my favourite Ivor Cutler trivia (no apologies for repeating) is that he used to collect Ivory Cutlery.Comment

You may be interested to know, Lat, that that alternative JC did a wee bit on MLK reading from an autobiog by Gil Scott Heron about how he went on tour with Stevie promoting a Martin Luther King Day. Seems the book is coming out....or is out. Here's a clip from the Grauny.Originally posted by Lateralthinking1 View Post

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b019pmg6 Top marks to Cerys.
Incidentally (one for JC) Cerys has just done an interview with Jack Bruce - not sure when that will be on, but (thanks to Twitter) I can tell you that Max asked her to ask Jack (still with me?) if he (Jack) had ever performed with Fela (at the time that Ginger B was). Shame Max didn't ask us innit...

Wonder which one to stick a request in for Global - I'm kinda keen on Watmon Cultural Group doing 'Lweny Dong Pe' just now.Originally posted by Globaltruth View PostExcellent x-channel channeling.... Top marks to Cerys.

Haven't heard her mention JB but she's had a trail of haggard rockers over the last year or so - Wyman, Woods, Wilco, some bloke from Black Sabbath, Joe Boyd (ok not haggard rocker) to name but a few - so Jack would make a very elevated entry to the Cerys Call of Fame.

I should point you to sub-section iv(b) of clause 3 of the Official Twitter Agreement (version 7 dated Jan '12) that you signed up to which says
'any tweets, lists, instagrams or references to country music specifically from the U S of A will cause the same to be blocked and the sending user account to be deleted'
