    Well done piece exploring the history of one of Isaan's treasured music forms - it's relation to art, literature, customs and the people of the region.

    Excellent! The problem with mowlam is it takes next to no effort to market itself to that vast majority of humanity who are non-Isaan, non-Thai, and do not read, write or speak Isaan Lao or Thai. In other words, it is inaccessible to most of us- except maybe for the latest hits. What a shame, because I like the music.

    In particular, there was/is a singer called 'Lung Lor' I became quite interested in, and tried to research. Total bluddy dead end. No help from the Isaan folk either.
