Dutiful Daughters - A Superfluity of Nuns

Here's a wonderful band I don't know much about

so feel free to fill in the gaps . Jeff  a blog reader from 

Brisbane who now lives in Canada and is on holidays 

here now, dropped of a heap of records and cds

this morning that had been at a friends place.

He was keen to hear this ep again so I have digitalized

it first. This is dreamy indi pop, female vocals,

wonderful melodies,

with that late 80's ups and downs guitar sound.

Thanks Jeff!

The Dili Allstars - Via La Musical

The Dili Allstars were formed when Paul Stewart and Colin Buckler
(of the notable band Painters and Dockers) contacted East Timorese
musician Gil Santos to record a song to protest the capture of
East Timorese resistance leader Xanana Gusmão by Indonesian armed
forces in the early nineties.
This song was a version of Rose Tattoo's 'We Can't Be Beaten',
sung in both Tetum and English. Both Santos and Stewart had had a
long involvement with the East Timor struggle as they had lost a
father and a brother, respectively, in the Indonesian
invasion of 1975.
In 2001 they released their 1st album Hanoin, Via La Musical
was released in 2004.The 5 track mini album Increase The Peace
was released in 2006 and they had 2 tracks on thge 2009 Balibo
soundtrack.
This is wonderful world music!
Funny, honest, born out of suffering that I cant imagine.
From our nearest neighbour whom we deserted in their
time of need.
