Good morning, let us go and listen to something really special.
Ever since I first heard the cd ‘Suburban Bucharest’ I am in love
with this type of music. We had some ‘Lautari’ albums in the
past, but until now no Taraf de Haïdouks. These Roumanian
gypsies play so marvelous, the music explodes of pure
emotion. If you’ve never listened to them I strongly
rsuggest you to do so ..

Goeiemorgen, laten we vandaag eens luisteren naar iets heel
speciaals. Vanaf het moment dat ik de cd ‘Suburban Bucharest’
hoorde was ik volledig verkocht en dol op deze stijl muziek. We
hadden al enkele ‘Lautari’ platen, maar tot nu toe niets met
Taraf de Haïdouks. Deze Roemeense zigeuners spelen zo
prachtig, hun muziek puit uit van pure emotie. Als je hier
nog niet eerder naar luisterde raad ik je sterk aan
dit nu eens te doen ..

Gabi Lunca, (born 1938) is a Romanian singer of urban
lautareasca music. Her father was a very respected violonist,
in the same musical style. Her mother died when Gabi was
very young and this left a major impression on her life. Many
of her songs deal with the ‘mother’ theme. She was married
to the great accordeonist Ion Stan-Onoriu. This record was
made with his orchestra. From 1983, on Electrecord ..

I have made a promise to our blog friend Pete to make
another ‘Seven 7″ Collector’, untill today I didn’t find the
time to do so unfortunately. He reminded me completely
justified yesterday. I promise to make time Pete. Another
request he made me was to post European music. Let’s see ..

Ever since I got aquainted with ‘Lautari’ or Muzica Lautareasca,
I started searching for records on Romania’s ‘Electrecord’ label.
Over the years we had several posts with Romanian music.
Today, we find this album on Electrecord with three artists
performing. Romica Puceanu with her velvet voice, Marcel
Budala and his accordeon and Gabi Lunca. Wonderful music
loaded with Romanian emotional gypsie feel. I just love it ..

Goedemorgen groevers, vandaag vraag ik om uw speciale aandacht.
Het was in oktober van 2008 dat ik voor het eerst een plaatje van
Romica Puceanu heb gebracht. Ik was toen al zeer gelukkig
dat ik er een gevonden had. Het heeft nog eens 8 jaar geduurd voor
dat ik wederom tegen een van haar albums aan liep, twee zelfs.
Wat een heerlijk gevoel geeft zo’n moment. Sinds de cd ‘Suburban
Bucharest’, waarop ik haar voor het eerst hoorde, ben ik groot
liefhebber geworden van de muziek van deze bijzondere vrouw, wat
een stem. Zelfs zonder dat ik er een woord van versta weet ze me
tot tranen te roeren. Geef haar eens een kans en luister,
ik beloof dat je er geen spijt van zult krijgen.
Warm geluid en bol van emotie..

Good morning groovers, today I’m asking for your special attention.
It was in october 2008 when I first posted one of the records by
Romica Puceanu. It made me so very happy finally have found one
of hers. It took me another eight years before finding the next album,
two even. What wonderful feeling at such a moment. Ever since the cd
‘Suburban Bucharest’, on which I heard her first time, I am a lover
of the music of this Rumanian lady. What a stunning voice she has.
Even without understanding one word of it she succeeds in jerking
one or two tears from my eyes. Give her a fair chance and I
promise you won’t be sorry, warm sound, full of emotion..
..shame about the few pops in tracks 5 & 6..

Toni Iordache is a true master on Cimbal. His music
carries a load of suspense like no other. If you are into
sublime instrumentalists, listen to this. I am a lover of songs
and would not post an instrumental album without being
virtuoso. Music for experienced listeners,
don’t touch if you aren’t.

If you like Romanian ‘Lautari’, this one is for you.
This album was released in 1984, the recordings must be
much older though, she passed away in 1963, not even 50 years old.
I do not understand Romanian but this music is beautiful,
even without knowing what it means she sings, I enjoy Maria Tanase’s
warm voice. For your relaxed sunday afternoon.

My first contact with Lautari was when I bought the CD
‘Suburban Bucharest’. It contains a mixture of old and new
Romanian music. Through that CD I got to know artists like
Romica Puceanu, of which I found this LP last year.
From one artist you come to the next, and that’s how
I discovered Maria Tanase.
It can’t be a coincident that I found part 2 of Maria Tanase’s
CD releases recently, and last week this LP.
Some listener asked for a little pause between all that dancing
music, well this is an album to sit down with and listen.
I hope you can appreciate this rare piece of Lautari.

Now pay attention !

I am so very happy to finally have found an original Romanian
pressing of an album, so beautiful, I can cry.
No seriously, Romica Puceanu came to me first time
when I bought the great Suburban_Bucharest.
I was so very impressed by her two songs on that cd, that voice.

Maybe you think; Romanian music, not for me, but don’t mistake here.
Just listen to this heartwarming music and you will understand
why Romica Puceanu had the gypsies weeping all around her.
She started her career singing in bars. At age 14 she was
more or less discovered and guided by the Brothers Gore, with
whom she made several records. On this LP she is backed by
Orchestra Florea Cioaca and on acordeon, Bebe Serban.
I have taken the tracklist from the backsleeve this time
so I can’t go wrong. ( all those symbols )

The principal occupation of Global Groove is to post old and forgotten LP’s.
Every now and then however, we post our own compilations such as this one.
Made for my brother Johan, who lives in Copenhagen, but you Groovers around
the Globe, you can take it too if you like. Gypsie music bursts of flaming
emotion, instrumentalists pur sang I’d say.
