Freedom Blues

Chab Khaled: La Liberté (1er version) 1984 / شاب خالد 

 

*** 

  Moi... Son sortilège a fondu
A moi la liberté
Celle qui m'a brûlé
A moi la liberté
On m'a aveuglé
Et noirci le coeur
Celle qui m'a enflamme´
Et la liberté
L'amour pour une beauté
M'a seccoué les os
Et la liberté
Ô mon raï...
On m'a voilé les yeux
Pour que je ne puisse pas la voir
La liberté 

 Khaled - quoted from the booklet "liberté"

 Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.  ~Abraham Lincoln

the king of Raï (and the she-devil of trab)

as promised earlier some Raï, (and  not rai or rye)
from  the king of Rai
and  a k7-around early 80's ? when the young Khaled was better  known as Chab Khaled.
essential Khaled

Mcpe 1060

equally you wouldn't  want to miss this Algerian  lady, another  incarnation of the devil himself
Cheikha Djenia and her amazing trab
(the rural variation of rai played with tambour  and gasba reed flutes)

right there.....
