my compilation

[alonewiththemoon]

Since so many others are posting their cd swap compilation* lists, I thought I'd post mine too.  As M said, it's eclectic, but it has Badriya Z written all over it.  The theme was just songs (or songs from albums**) that I really liked a lot this year.  Not all of these were brand new this year, but they were brand new to me.

*for readers who wonder what that means, a group of my friends have an annual mix cd swap.  It's very fun and a great way to learn about music.

**in the case of some of the Arabic stuff, my real favorite song on the album was likely to be up to 20 minutes long, so I put a shorter but also lovely piece on instead.

What a Rare Bird:  songs enjoyed this year by Z

1. Einsturzende Neubauten—Ein seltener Vogel
2. Turbo Tabla—Mahbub
3. Jalilah’s Raks Sharki vol. 6—Ali’s Ney
4. George Lammam—Sa’at Mebashurek Ganbi (now, seeing you beside me)

6. Black Tape for a Blue Girl—Tarnished
