Has anyone seen Latcho Drom?

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/6304263198/qid%3D1098262936/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/102-3313705-6537746

If not you should go out of your way to see it. It features some absolutely incredible music. Ed, you should DEFINITELY recommend it to Guthrie. I'm positive he would LOVE it (as indeed I'm sure many here would love it).

Thanks for the heads-up. I've placed the order. Too bad this one's not available in DVD. Seems very interesting and I look forward to checking it out. It's also interesting that ever since I got into Guthrie, I'm getting more and more into non-guitar music and other things out there. We guitar freaks tend to just lock ourselves into a rather narrow world of music and it's good to be able to explore other things out there. Thanks again!

Excellent. I'm positive that you won't regret your purchase Ed. The music is divine. So humble and joyous and TRUE. Let me know what you think when you've checked it out.

Got the VHS from Amazon yesterday. Very exotic and interesting stuff! Very Happy I only got to see the first-half of it or so last night but will watch the remainder in the next day or two. I think it's definitely stuff that would grow on me with repeated viewings. There are a lot of subtleties that I need to try to pick up on. All those microtonal type of inflections in their singing and the instrumental melodies take a little while for ears to get used to. The rhythms are fascinating, too. Definitely music for the adventurous with an open-mind towards exotic World Music. Thanks a lot. It's great stuff and I'm sure it'll grow on me even more.

Ed, WAIT till you see the French gypsy guitarists. The sound is a little more familiar to our western ears but the music is no less beautiful.

Yeah, it's great stuff. Made me remember that Django was a gypsy!
