re: #72 Mattand
Fun Fact: That song was written by a blind guy named Paul Pena. He was the subject of a documentary called “Genghis Blues”.
He spent his time listening to shortwave radio and came across a broadcast of Tuvan throat singing music. He learned to translate the Tuvan language into Russian and from that into English Braille.
He taught himself how to perform throat singing and eventually travelled to the Mongolian lands of Tuva and became a bit of a local celebrity due to his throat-singing technique.
