SOUNDS FROM A BYGONE AGE "Vol 1 - 5" www.asphalt-tango.de

Vol.1 feat. Ion Petre Stoican (Romania): On the only long-playing record by the Romanian violinist Ion Petre Stoican, the most important gypsy musicians from the Bucharest Lautari scene are united in an all-star band and through a bizarre stroke of luck created one of the most atmospheric records of the time. CD-ATR0805 www.asphalt-tango.de Vol.2 feat. Romica Puceanu (Romania): The grande dame of the songs of the suburbs, Romica Puceanu, was the incarnation of Romanian Lautari music. Above all however, she was a soulful performer of the songs from the poor suburbs, which she recorded in 1964 with the Gore Brothers in a valuable sound document. CD-ATR1006 www.asphalt-tango.de Vol.3 feat. Dona D. Siminica (Romania): Dona Dumitru Siminica sang Romanian blues from the suburbs with his unique falsetto voice and offered consolation to the lonely, tended the wounds of the deserted and prepared those newly-infatuated for the end of their love. CD-ATR1106 www.asphalt-tango.de Vol.4 feat. Toni Iordache (Romania): Toni Iordache -- the great Romanian tambal player was showered with the highest honours in his day and sent to prison for the little pleasures in life. This release presents a rare insight into the creative work of the musical legend from the period of the Iron Curtain. Romanian traditional music with its original analogue sound -- recorded in the 1960s and 1970s! CD-ATR1307 www.asphalt-tango.de
