F.n.: This Gnawa Galore of almost 100 pictures
is a look at a past full of vivid colours in
old Morocco, Algiers, and Tunis.
Gnawa music has always been a secret kept alive for years.
Only two-hundred years ago, eastoxified Orientalists
(who came mostly from France and Italy) tried to unearth it.
Regardless of the 'ethknowlegde' of those...
there's a huge misunderstanding of all that's 'Gnawa'.
In my coming post, we shall take a deep look at it from
different points of thought; dissect its mythical worlds
one by one with careful detail, and conclusiveness.
Next on the Audiotopia will be another pic-post:
And another one-hundred P.P.P.s of Tambourine Players.
Dear reader, if you think that these pictures are too much,
then allow me here, 'cause I am sure a very huge picture-post
with almost 1500 pictures will make you change your mind.
I'll be 'poasting' (boast-posting) it after the Gnawa one.
I guess words can become useless sometimes.
Please, as a blogster co-pallie: forgive the belatedness!
Soon, and as Ramadan begins, I shall finish the Gnawa Post.
Always have good time... all the time!
Ciao ciao!
