ၼၢင်းၼၢင်း | Nang Nang - Compilation (1970s-1980s)
Download: ၼၢင်းၼၢင်း | Nang Nang - Compilation (1970s-1980s) YouTube The bands she's a member of: Tai Noom (tr. Young Shan), Invisible , High Hopes , and Tunggaburi Band . She started it with Tai Noom. The first track on this compilation is the first track ever recorded on this band!! They did it in a basement - they did it themselves. No label or anything. They had trouble getting a hold of the instruments that they wanted (before making the first tape, of course). The band members went from village to village, singing and asking for gifts (in a humble way, like homeless people cardboard signs). They got the spare change that they could get and got the instruments for the band. They made double-entendre lyrics (what the locals would understand - not the Burmese officially led government, of course - they probably don't understand the hidden meanings of Shan language lyrics). To protect themselves from the government - not anything like Sai Hs...
Umm... What's the band's name? 🤔 "IMPERIAL" is a fake band name for Tai Noom, a band that wanted to protect themselves from the govt. 👍 NOT the same band in this tape clearly, different singers and everything... The same studio ("Prince Studio") that recorded the tapes.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I winged it for the artist's name for each track... The female, more obvious ("ၼၢင်း / Nang" meaning miss/es). The 2 males? I dunno 🤷♂️
Let me know if you guys can 👍
Be well!! 👋
CORECTIONS:
ReplyDeleteImperial is NOT a fake name for a band. However, Sai Keo (or Sai Kew) was born in 1961-62 in Loi Tai Leng.
Their title track "Khen Nam Lai Ké" guitar solo is based on The Stranglers, from what I mostly think of.
Once again, Imperial is NOT an AFB.
A.
FAKE.
BAND.
PERIOD! 💀
