Various - Tziganes: Paris/ Berlin/ Budapest/ 1910-1935 (@320)











The Roma expulsions and the demolition of their camps that Sarkozy has ordered was the event that shocked me the most during my months of absence. Such treatment shows the real brutal face of the "civilised" west and brings us appalling memories of the Nazi pogroms. And, yes, it is a round-up, even if they want to hide behind more elegant words only to hide their fascism.

Today's upload is a rewarding release which presents pre WWII gypsy violin-led orchestras before the massive Nazi wipe out.

  1. Good to see you back in the blogosphere. And these Gypsy tunes look to be spectacular. Such an amazing rhythm in their soul.
    I love the sound of the gypsy violin.
