Duquesne

Seems to be a year full of hard-to-spell place names. Tonight's tongue twister is Duquesne, which I have no idea how to pronounce, much less spell. This record was produced by the college kids at the college of the same name located in Pittsburgh, PA. Not sure what the relationship between the school, it's students, and Croatia is, but they surely loved it and celebrated it's culture every chance they got. This LP celebrates the Christmas music of the region, and it's not the only one they produced. I shared a 10" version of this very same album a couple years back, in fact, and I suspect there will be another record later tonight, you'll just have to wait and see if that turns out to be true. While you're waiting, here's the record of the moment to listen to, Duquesne University Tamburitzans-Christmas In Croatia (DU-TAM LPDU-5 & 6, Stereo, 1978). Enjoy!
