Anyone interested in world music?


John McLaughlin with Shiv Kumar Sharma. What an interesting and sophisticated performance.

I would say that sevdah is more complex than blues.
But I'll admit I prefer Spain's flamenco to both. At his best El Camaron de la Isla was incomparable. !973, 1974, 1975, 1977 albums are considered masterpieces. If I had to choose one, this would probably be 1977 'Castillo de Arena'. Paco de Lucia on guitarra on all these albums.
By the way, if someone wants a record, and they are very rare, there is one right now on ebay. I have three copies of it already, none is Mint though.
Thanks for the heads up re the Camaron lp on eBay; just purchased it.

Btw, I think Alexatpos makes an important distinction re sevdah/blues; similar in feeling not form. Not sure how one can describe one particular feeling as more complex than another. Form, yes. Feeling?... Alex, if you read this, I would be interested in that translation.
Orpheus10, no thank you, I very much prefer sevdah. You can't really compare.
