Nusrat Ali Fatah Khan

Nusrat Fatah Ali Khan - Allah Hoo Part 1



I belive the higher pitched singer on the right most is his nephew Rahat. This is among the best traditional Qwaali music out there... you have to watch your way through it to really get a feel for the talent of the musicians and the power their spirituality brings to their performances.



Allah Hoo - Part 2



Nusrat Ali Fatah Khan - Akhian Udeek Diyan



Eddie Vedder and Rahat Ali Fatah Khan (Nephew to Nusrat)- The Face of Love

Godspeed you Black Emperor! - Albanian



Currently an unreleased song, but you can download a live version of it legally [here]

The file is in .shnf format... so you will need winamp and this plugin to play it.

Also you can convert .shn files to .mp3 or .wav .... but doing so is typically illegal (if stated by the poster) so, thats up to you guys to figure out how to do!

Silver Mt. Zion - Take These Hands and Throw Them in the River (live)



A more accessible form of Godspeed you Black Emperor! that touches closer to Indie and Alt music then its counterpart... this is an excellent live performance, with considerations to sacrifices of sound quality.

TV on the Radio/Peter Murphy/Trent Reznor - Bela Lugosi's Dead



Awesome version of an old Bauhaus classic performed live in Washington DC

Mum - The Island of Childrens Children



Something about old grainy footage and a Mum track that just works... This was compiled by Jason Andrew Wilford, using old super 8 footage of his family.
