Most of the songs from this album are better known ones from the early part of his long career. But overall, this sounds about the same as other 2020 home recordings I've posted at this blog.

There are a few songs in this long series that I didn't include because the sound quality wasn't as good as the others. Even though all the songs were recorded inside his house, it seems he's varied his recording setup and his location slightly from time to time, which has sometimes changed the sound quality. The sound quality is generally pretty good, but it's variable. The talking doesn't have much replay value, and has zero value if you don't speak Indonesian. So I've gone to some effort to extract only the songs and leave all the rest behind. Most of that time t is him talking into the camera (in Indonesian), with one song performed at some point in there. The YouTube videos these songs are taken from are usually quite long, typically ten to twenty minutes long. But the original versions were typically done with a band, and these acoustic versions are often quite different. They're all original songs taken from his many albums. So I have four more albums in this series after this one, hopefully with more to come. As I write this in January 2022, he's still going with it. I could try to put together an introductory best of collection of that kind of material, if people are interested.įals got started doing these acoustic versions in late 2020, typically doing one song a week.

Probably a better place to start for someone who doesn't speak the language is the full band stuff. As such, there's more of a focus on the lyrics. These are all unreleased versions of songs he started posting on YouTube during the Covid pandemic, just as many musicians have done in other countries. If you've never heard his music before, this probably isn't the best place to start. Here's his Wikipedia entry if you want to know more about him: Fals had the number one song, as well as the most songs on the list. (As an example, the second song here, "Ambulans Zig Zag," is a critique about the poor state of Indonesia's public health care system.) In 2002, Time Magazine listed him as a "Great Asian Hero." Also in 2005, the Asian version of Time Magazine published their opinion of the top 100 Indonesian songs of all time. He's particularly known for the quality of his lyrics, and he's served as kind of the social conscience of the country, with many protest songs about poverty, injustice, corruption, and so on. His music career started in the late 1970s, and he's still going strong today (as I write this in 2022), with a new album released in 2021. He's often referred to as the "Bob Dylan of Indonesia," and with good reason. But I lived there for two years at one point, and in my opinion he's heads and shoulders above all other Indonesian musicians, a musical genius. Have you ever heard of Iwan Fals? Unless you've spent time in Indonesia, I highly doubt it.

I figure very few people will download this, but who knows, maybe word will get out to some Indonesian groups and it'll find an audience. But if not, you may well skip it, since all the songs here are sung in the Indonesian language. Do you speak Indonesian? If so, you'll hopefully love this. I have to warn that this album isn't for everyone.
