When it comes to gypsy music, I seem to have been kept in a time capsule.
I don't like the balkan style and I don't like the jewish style. I don't like the klezmer style and of course I don't like the neo 'gypsy style', all of which sales a lot of records today.
So what? Am I condemned to avoid all things 'gypsy' in this debilitating times of numbing commercial music production? Hell NO! On the contrary... I am led by the Tsunami of bad stuff to discover the island of good stuff. (Hope U follow).
That is to say: by eliminating the mountain of shit from the way, I usually find a gem or two in the process.
That's what we got here. Music From The Deserts Nomads by the Kohinoor Langa Group.
It doesn't say 'gypsy', to start with.
Instead we are presented with the music by the 'Desert Nomads' from Rajastan...
Do not be misled by this trick however, this is pure original roots music from the Indian Gypsys.
That's where it all started.
