I'm Not Judging or Anything, But

King of Roma

Saban Bajramovic passed away yesterday, at age 72..
He was the voice and soul of Roma.

It's strange. I was at DID over the weekend, and heard August sing his song. I was moved to hear his song unexpectedly at such a beautiful event under the stars, and was impressed that Onca's troupe would choose it for their performance. August's performance was different and lovely. I thought of Saban, and wondered how he was doing. I had met him a few years ago, and he was not well then.

Seido is sad. I guess all Roma are.

It's unfortunate, but sometimes it takes a passing for people to really give a listen.

Namaste'

How sad - the music world is losing so many greats lately....
I"m going to go listen to gypsy king of serbia for inspiration
I was hoping to make it to Guca fest this year but it may have to wait another year....too many financial problems right now to get a plane ticket!
