Thread Name: Female Folk Vocalists of Distinction
Subject: RE: Female Folk Vocalists of Distinction
Beata Palya: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWAd6Ip_-Wc (read the words in the comments!)
Brenna MacCrimmon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpLN3KRjsW0
MacCrimmon again in the most laid-back Turkish song arrangement you'll ever hear
Aynur Dogan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIqxl3mnCJU (Kurdish lament from a film, there is talk overlaid in places)
more Aynur, Turkish bardic style
Zara: Turkish anti-war lament, unaccompanied
Selda Bagcan: sounding rather flamenco (she's an icon of the Turkish far left)
Esma Redzepova: very young and sounding rather like Eartha Kitt (she doesn't sing like that now)
