Tribe Ahl Serif: Master Musicians of Jajouka
I figured some of you might be interested in this rare 2xLP album. It includes two tracks of Gimbiri music, which is perhaps oud-adjacent for our
purposes here at Mike's.
Stephen Davis mentioned this album in this fascinating blog article.
Third (and perhaps most important) is Tribe Ahl Serif: Master Musicians of Jajouka (Musical Heritage Society, circa 1976). This is a two-record
set made by Arnold Stahl around 1971, when a Danish film crew was working in the village. The second record in this set consists of about 25 minutes
of the Boujeloudiya, or music for the goat god Bou Jeloud, which formerly danced in the village during the Aid el Kebir festival. The recording
quality is excellent, and it features the large formation – 20 rhaitas and about 15 drummers – that Brian Jones recorded, and that I later
chronicled beginning in 1973.
I got a copy, made a digital transfer and put it on both Substack and Youtube
