Tracks list

Compiled by Chris Menist, Qat, Coffee & Qambus: Raw 45s from Yemen features
vintage oud and vocal music inspired by the qat-chewing, coffee-sipping,
qambus-playing culture of Yemen. Although part of the classical Arabic musical
tradition, the music of Yemen takes its rhythmic lead as much from the East
African coast (a mere 20 miles across the Red Sea) as the surrounding Arab
Peninsula.

Little has been written about the music and culture of one of the world’s
oldest civilizations, and each 45rpm disc gives a small glimpse of the poetic
tradition, the unique local oud styles as well as an insight into
people’s day-to-day lives, or the highs and lows of human relationships.
Overall, the compilation gives a flavor of the sights and sounds of Yemen, with
detailed notes that tell the story of the hunt for music that has mostly lain
forgotten in the antique markets of the capital, until now.
