I became fascinated by how the church music in Burma had and continued to develop over the years since the 1970's. Thanks to You Tube, plenty of material is out there. I submitted the Jimmy Nathan clip not to offend, but rather, as an example of how our native genres are adopted and interpreted. It helps to be a country fan smile



Oh yeah, that is a seriously repressive regime. Burma, Myanmar, whatever they call themselves, they are a very anti-Christian place with harsh persecution of the church. They don't seem to be as anti-western as they are anti-church. That's a topic for a different forum.

Yeah, those asian cover bands are interesting to say the least.... So are the Mexican narco marachi bands.....
