this week, a sampling of national artist chinnakon krailat's brilliant career! dr. chinnakon's work was some of the most successful blending of pop music with influences from thailand's broad variety of folk & art musics. after starting out as a ramwong singer in his home province of sukhothai, chinnakon was picked up by "modernized music" impresario phayong mukda, with whom he made his most famous recordings. this tape has some great, dance-able drum & organ driven numbers, but my favorite is the beautiful "yo yot phra lo" with its piphat orchestra backing. enjoy!

That song to the Piphat is just sublime. Any chance of hearing some more piphat?

surely more to come, as well!
I've been following your blog for years now and I've already downloaded those. I'm a Thai classical music junkie. I just can't get enough. Never really been able to get into Molam and Luk Tung but the classical traditions from all over Thailand really do something for me. It was buying a Fong Naam cd nearly 20 years ago that did it. So feel free to ignore me but I have an insatiable appetite for new Thai recordings.

hey stephen!
you probably know of it already, but there are a couple of great thai classical music cassettes available at cliff sloane's asian classical mp3 site, as well:
