Amazing. I was listening to Mahmoud Guinia and - almost at random had a look at your blog, which I haven't checked out for a while - and there at the top of the pile was an MG album I didn't know. Thanks for the synchronicity!

Same thoughts as Swine... hadn't checked out the blog in a while, and just happen to stop by and find a MG album I'd never even known existed.

Question: Any information on the date of this recording?

Mr Tear said...

I'm afraid the cd cover only has English translations of the song titles, and even these may not be too reliable. There are no dates for either recording or release. I'm not sure where you would go about trying to find a discography of this chap, but I know that in Morocco, and especially in Essaouira, there seem to be an endless stream of different Mahmoud cd's on sale. And then there's the cassettes...

if you can handle torrents, there's a 2.49GB one with various gnawa stuff over @ demonoid. most of it is the usual stuff, or worse, but some are worth digging out.
