sufi

On Khan’s death in 1997, South Asia women wailed and men wept as if a god had removed himself from the earth. And in a way one had, because Khan had made the rich religious poetry of the Sufi tradition even more magical, bringing words and music together in an ecstatic celebration of the divine. To listen to him was to hear the harmony of the spheres.

First a soulful afrobeat on a funky beat from Cymande‘s self titled 1982 album. Then a truly hypnotic track by the king of bearded disco DJ Harvey “Lovefinger” which I guess gives its name to the blog lovefingers.

Hope to find the world a better place tomorrow morning..
Just kidding, but if you really want to change your life, it’s as easy as deciding to be happy and getting rid of the stupid burdens you carry in your back, so let’s hope everyone finds the strength to tackle life better in 2007.
