Music from other worlds (subtitle: 'listen to an idiot)
Šaban vs Msr
"...and so you stay among yourselves listening to Peruvian groups with bagpipes that only four cats listen to and that even their relatives don’t buy!" (quote)
HERE I AM! PRESENT! I, the pretentious know-it-all, frequenter of the most malodorous and hidden niches, who "will never be part of a majority" as that guy said in that movie... I propose you listen to some of the most unimaginable stuff that has come into my hands and ears over the years. You, believe an idiot, spare 5 minutes to listen (read, watch, eat, smell...) to something other than the same things you already know how they are; if you don’t take risks, what happens is simply that your brain atrophies.

Great, Goran Bregović is great! Beautiful the soundtrack of "Underground"! Someone must have even listened to the Kočani Orkestar and the Mystère des voix Bulgares, and some of that stuff has even made its way here (from Mau Mau to Les Négresses Vertes)... in short, we have listened to a bit of that gypsy music too!
Yet no one - I believe - has ever heard of Šaban Bajramović, the "King of Romani music." Yet the story of this man (from a Romani family, extremely poor and barely literate, struck by polio as a child and - despite that - an excellent soccer goalkeeper; in jail at 19, a deserter for love. And there, in prison, he began to sing. In his last years of life, severely ill, he was considered a national treasure by the Serbian government and financially supported) and - above all - his truly extraordinary Music should tell us far more than a thing or two!
At least try to listen to this 2001 album "A Gypsy legend" by Šaban Bajramović & Mostar Sevdah Reunion.
But really! Trust an idiot...
