this week, we'll hear from one of luk thung's great sentimental balladeers, miss sunari ratchasima! hailing from nakhon ratchasima, sunari rose from local song contest champion to a national recording star. crafted for her full-bodied voice and impressive range, sunari's songs were particularly popular in the country's semi-professional café scene, where singers would invariable tackle one of her songs to prove their mettle^[1]. this 1988 cassette from sure audio finds sunari in front of a synth-driven band, backed up by a team of songwriters like chiw phichit, chonlati thanthong, kong katkamhaeng and others.. even a famous indonesian melody finds its way here. enjoy!
