- Description

- Tracklist
-
ntensely expressive free-verse vocal laments over sliding violins, hammered santouri, guitar, and oud - the hybrid sounds of the Mediterranean in the early 20th century. “Aman Aman” cry the singers on these recordings, their voices preserved on 78rpm discs cut between 1911-1935. The phrase roughly translates to “mercy,” a call of despair, but also one of joy and admiration. On many of these sides, that full range of emotion is transmitted at once. Devastating poems about losing love and losing home, backed by some of the best musicians of the era. Deeply researched over several years, carefully remastered and restored, includes detailed historical and discographical notes and poetic lyric translations. via Mississippi Records.
