Qaraami Songs Club

Originally by Raula

do you know that that guiter--KABAN as somalis refer to it-- is also used by the ZANZIBARIS/PEMBAS/TANZANIANS and many other traditional SWAHILI legends in along the East african coast-best example is the ZANZIBAR's legendary singer ZEIN and actually the sounds/beats of his songs sound like QARAMI indeed.

I know sis, some of my fav Oud players include Sudanese named Abdel Gadir Salim and abdil Aziiz Mubaarak - who featured along with several other Oud-playing singers in last month's edition of Songlines magazine's 50 essential African albums. I've never listened to Zein but they could be the Zanzibari 'band' that made it in the Songlines' top 50.

 

 

 

BTW I like your and Yasmine's choices.

by the way most of XALIMO MILANO songs are sung nowdays by a lady named ZEYNAB LABA-DHAGAX(the name scares the b-jeez outta me-ba. cajiib). I used to adore her songs(still do)but now are rare collectables-waayihi aan shukaansi biloobe(back in da 80's)-dhowaa wayaahas ;):D .
