it's great to have found your site.. al...hey there!<br />it's great to have found your site.. always exciting to meet people interested in old thai music (and thank you for the link as well)!<br />i think i can help you out with some context for this tape. you're right about it being funeral music; the style is "piphat mon", derived from the <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mon_people" REL="nofollow">mon people</A>, though now part of the thai repertoire, played (by thais) at funerals.. i'm not sure about historically how it acquired this position, other than through the clearly plaintive nature of the tunes.. this would be interesting to look into! there are no artists listed, only the description of the ensemble as a ปี่พาทย์มอญเครื่องใหญ่ (<A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piphat#Piphat_mon_khruang_yai" REL="nofollow">piphat mon khrueang yai</A>), which indicates the size and instrumentation of the orchestra. this is a really excellent recording, i've never heard vocals like this! thanks so much for sharing.<br /><br />here is the tracklist:<br />01. มอญร้องไห้ (mon ronghai)<br />02. มอญยกศพ (mon yok sop)<br />03. เชิญศพ (choen sop)<br />04. มอญประจำบ้าน (mon pracham ban)<br />05. มอญประจำวัด (mon pracham wat)<br />06. ธรณีกรรแสง (thorani kansaeng)<br />07. ธรณีกรรแสง (thorani kansaeng)<br />08. ดาวทอง (dao thong)<br />09. ย่าเล (ya le)<br />10. มอญโพกผ้า (mon phok pha)<br />11. เพลงแน (phleng nae)<br />12. พญาแบแล (phaya bae lae)<br />13. ดาวทอง (dao thong)<br />14. ย่าเล (ya le)<br /><br />& one other thing.. the mp3s don't seem to want to extract, although oddly enough i can listen to them as temp files! this is the only album i've downloaded from you that's had this problempeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07553803066290662761noreply@blogger.com
