i had never heard of this g...wow! thanks for this..<br />i had never heard of this guy before (สุเทพ โชคสกุล, suthep chokhsakun) but a little research revealed that he was one of the earliest songwriters of thai pop music to feature lyrics about common people, in the style sometimes called either "pleng chiwit" or "pleng talat" (often considered the predecessor of both pleng luk thung & pleng puea chiwit).. he wrote songs for <A HREF="http://monrakplengthai.blogspot.com/2008/12/blog-post_29.html" REL="nofollow">khamron sambunnanon</A> and others! very cool to hear him singing his own songs here.. no idea who the lady with him might be, though. let me know if you'd like the tracklist; the songs are all about farming, eating chicken, and how awesome janitors are!peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07553803066290662761noreply@blogger.com
