We're back with more from the gift that keeps giving, Dust-t0-Digital's "Excavated Shellac" box set. More details of what it contains and how I came to acquire it through the good offices of the mysterious JWA can be found in Monday's post.
This time we are featuring two tracks each from Discs 3 and 4 of the box set. In order, the place and time they come from are: Mauritius (l958 or thereabouts), Malta (1932), Iraq (1930) and South Africa (1967).
"Dans La Ville Mahebourg" - Francis Salomon
"Iz-Zakkiek" - Emmanuele Cilia
"Bilmez Pt 1" - Kawis Axa
"Maheshe" - Durban Lions
I was lucky enough to spend a couple of days in Mahebourg last year while working in Mauritius. A lively town and a lovely spot (see photo below) but I didn't do any dancing. I was wary of getting dizzy.
That video is very complicated to understand. Perhaps that is because I am so dizzy.
ReplyDeleteOr perhaps it was the video that caused the dizziness?
