In honour of Remembrance Sunday. And this had me "old dad" dancing around the kitchen. Their other album "the Race For Space " is a banger too.

Absolutely love it. I'm rewatching the whole of BBC's 'The World at War' at the moment. Our dads were the lucky ones, they came home. Never forget.

I listen to a bit of morlam (molam) sometimes, music from the North Thailand/Laos Khmer region. Below is a beautiful example by the really gifted Maim Lis, although I often play the more dancy stuff the Isaan women sway to in HH bars when having a little party (I only go to a bar daytime outside of boozy drinker hours). There's also some crazy older stuff on albums from the 70s you can find online.

For a psychedelic slightly dub-style take, listen to the album: "Jah Wobble & The Invaders Of The Heart – Molam Dub". John Wardle (Jah Wobble now) was bass player for the great Public Image Ltd (PiL) back in the day.

Also I like some Luk Thung which is a bit more regular Thai country style. Just like western music, I don't like every artist.

Well I listened to it but can’t say I’ll rush for a second hearing - yes I know I’m uneducated, but it didn’t do much for me!!

I'm indulging in an hour of nostalgia listening to Santana on Amazon. Alexa took me there, bless her. Of course I have to use a text to speech app these days, being sans voice, but Alexa doesn't seem to mind. :laugh: https://www.naturalreaders.com/online/
It's very useful for things like brief instructions to Alexa, but not much else. :cheers:

That was my favorite during the university days! Still pull it out often.
