Guitars Of The Golden Triangle

Description

This delicious collection of folk-blues and country & western ballads, and yéyé rock, compiled by ALAN BISHOP gives pride of place to the guitar heroes of the 70s and 80s, such as LASHIO THEIN AUNG (nicknamed the Burmese Texan), KHUN PAWYUNN and SAING SAING MAW, from the Shan and Pa'o provinces, in the heart of the Golden Triangle. With the master tapes having long since disappeared, these precious recordings, remastered from “collector” audio cassettes, constitute the only tangible link to a lost generation as well as to a mythical scene that the label Sublime Frequencies was proud to revive in 2005 on a now out-of-print CD. Reissue in limited-edition double LP format.
