I’ve heard about The Zimmers through a podcast show yesterday, The Zimmers are a British band that thought to have the oldest members in the world, they have Alf as a lead singer who is 90 and they oldest member is Buster Martin the oldest employee in UK, Buster is 100.
They only have one single till now a cover of The Who’s “My Generation” you can watch the video of this song here on Y! video, this video completely made my day. The name of “The Zimmers” came from Zimmer, an old brand of walking frames, cool huh?
It was about two months ago that I heard about a new musician-singer named “Mohsen Namjo”, and It was just yesterday that I heard one of his song via a link in one of my friends blog.
He have a very strange music I’m not a music specialist to name his style but I’m sure that he have his very unique style in Iranian music, he don’t sing in normal, modern and traditional ways, he uses his voice as an instrument so you may hear almost every thing. You can also hear some Jazz, Rock, Blues and specially Iranian traditional music in his tracks. He mix every thing in a very new, strange and creative way. As far as I know he have 5 albums waiting in the line to be released and none of the officially released yet, take a look at his web site, and you can download one of his clips called “Zolf bad Bad” here (HQ/LQ) beside reading the lyrics translation to English.
