mashallah. beautiful oud & taksim, that sweet beautiful elusive sound! I love the pause at 5:00, I thought you were going to go to a totally different makam, but you tricked us. Lovely. Thank you!
Roman Bunka is a true master on the oud; I can understand why he put away his guitar for it (though it is a pity; he was one of my favorite guitar players; some of the very best guitar solos I know were by him)
I love his playing on the oud, but in the 70s/80s I travelled long distances to see him on (e-)guitar, and it always was worth it. One of my favourite players. If you have any (live) recording of Embryo playing with Bunka ...
I saw the movie "Dein Kopf ist ein schlafendes Auto" by Werner Penzel, which was a feature about his band (consisting of Roman Bunka - guitar and oud, Freddy Setz - drums, percussion and keyboards, Gerald Luciano Hartwig - bass and sitar). The movie itself was only so-so, but the music was simply fantastic. So fantastic indeed that at first I was disappointed by their album, although it is one of my favorites today.
Yeah, they played "Road to Asia" in this movie in a version that was by far better than the original. When the LP came out in about 1980, it wasn't on it, and when I read the CD will be released with bonus tracks, I made a jump, but it wasn't even on the CD. Perhaps it will be released on "The Complete Electric Roman Bunka Sessions" on 10 CDs ... (may I dream?)
Aera Live from 1980 will also be worth buying - Besetzung: Klaus Kreuzeder - ss., Roman Bunka - e-g., Locko Richter - b., Freddy Setz- dr., keyb., Helmut Meier-Limberg - perc., Lutz Oldemeier - dr.; 7 songs, on two they stretch out
The amazing thing and what i really like about Roman Bunka is the idea of how a europian man from a very different culture be able to have such a sense and net eastern feelings playing the Oud like that ..I really like you . you are a true and different musician . No doubt you are different..i hope i can find all your pieces .Not only those with the king Mounir who is really a true and different artist same as you....
Hallo,
haben sie zufällig in dem Film Al Oud das Holz mitgespielt?
Sie kommen mir sehr bekannt vor. Außerdem spielen sie wirklich sehr schön
freundliche Grüße

Yes, I know that album. Fantastic playing by Roman again, especially the guitar solo in "Lost Scooters" with the echo effect.

Bunka is the son of a German diplomat and grew up in Beirut. That may have helped :-)
