Widge’s Sonic Emporium #39: “No One Forgives the Fugitives of Heaven”

23 March 2024
Louder Than War Radio

There is a standing apology to all the nations and cultures of the world…because I have some kind of neuronal disconnection which gives me difficulty pronouncing things. So if I say something stupidly incorrect (pronunciation-wise), it’s not on purpose.

Welcome. Here are what passes for show notes. The reason the playlist is in the format you find it is because I really need a life. The very overwrought explanation can be found here.

Format is:
Artist/Band Name – “Song Name” – Album Name – (Band’s/Artist’s Country of Origin, Year of Song’s Original Release)

Now with Bandcamp links (where available), and if they’re not, I include Amazon links.

---

The Tsinandali Choir — “Orovela” — Table Songs of Georgia — (1988, Georgia) – Bandcamp

On Bandcamp for some reason, the album is shown as self-titled. But Discogs proves that in this case, at least, I’m not insane and I have the title right.

Kronos Quartet & Mahsa Vahdat — “Placeless” — Placeless — (2019, USA/Iran) – Bandcamp

Efterklang with Beirut — “Getting Reminders” — Getting Reminders single — (2024, Denmark/USA) – Bandcamp

I thought the Efterklang was a whole album…for some reason. Anyway, it’s a single. I don’t even remember if I misidentified it during the show. But just in case.
