Perfect for wandering travelers in the Saharan desert. Small, lightweight, easy to wrap up and pack. Easy to pull out and serenade the camels. Actually a lovely sound. This person played it well, smooth and lamguid, soothing after a hard, hot day traveling across the endless expanse.

@@bebe7C9 Yes! Greatly under-appreciated!! As evidenced by your comment. FYI - Since it appeared in the 1920s there have been considerably more than "like 5 consecutive (?) remakes". 'Recognising', 'knowing' and 'appreciating' are not synonymous.

@trueaussie92303 ай бұрын
@@user-cf1vb6op5h This is much closer to the first version I ever heard, recorded by Nikos Roubanis and releaseed under the Columbia label in the 1920s. The next version I heard was recorded by Harry James in the 1940s (if memory serves), also released under the Columbia label. I believe either Glenn Miller or Benny Goodman (maybe both) also released a version in the 1940s.

wow, love it, this songs reminds me both of 12 years of playing in a surfrock band to me from 2000-2012 (The Killer Bananazz, dutch band), having stopped pleasing drunk kids and getting home late at 3 am every weekend day and then continuing with music composing for film, theatre, podwalks, etc and for that collecting dozens of ethnic string and wind instruments. This is such a gorgeous sound, this 'mulatar', quite new to me, and so well-played, the relaxed pace and simple drumming gives it a really good mood. Great to hear you master 'the art of omission' as we tend to say in the netherlands, meaning you keep the essence of the song but play not a single note too many. Made my day. thanks
