Even though Paul and Ondar's bodies are dead, their spirits are immortal. With this music, they'll live forever

RIP Paul "Earthquake" Pena... you are greatly missed.

This is the beauty of two cultures coming together with complete respect for each other, to make something beautiful. This is the pinnacle of humanity.

My mom took me to see this movie because I was into guitar and she was cool and it blew my mind. Later saw some Tuvan singers on tour, stunning. Never got to see Paul, but there’s always that glorious original of “Jet Airliner.” The only guitarist possibly more fluid than Cale. Like water, you don’t always know where it’s going but it never leaves the stream.

holy fuck. This is the most beautiful thing my ears have ever listened to.

This is a life changing film a must see

That overtone melody that Kongar-ol Ondar is awesome. It's funky, with nice rhythm and so in control. You hear the 'whistle' sound of the overtones more than you hear his voice! This mix of Paul and him are a match that heaven could not have better made.

I just learned about yesterday (10/03/08.Paul was singing in Capeverdean Kreul.Thank you Paul, rest in PEACE...

one of my favourite films ...showing the way music communicates across culture and celebrates friendship! Paul Pena is a legend ...what a beautiful legacy

blessed be Paul Pena is still warming so many hearts!!

Paul was a Cape Verdean man, blind since childhood and lived in Harwich, MA. He was amazingly successful during his far too short time on this earth. His mother is STILL amazing and equally talented in art and quilting. I am proud to be her friend and learning quilting from her!

Tuvan music and the blues sound really good together!

This is cosmic! It's things like this which manage to restore my faith in humanity... Thanks for uploading!

This performance always brings a smile to my face. Two very unlikely best buddies because of the fascination one had upon hearing Tuvan Throat Singing, and all his labours to learn it and the language.

Paul Pena was beyond brilliant. He should be celebrated in his hometown of Hyannis MA with a statue!!

I happened to see Ghengis Blues on PBS, when it first came out. Found it to be untouchable...... the Power that Mr.Pena brought to this film was awesomely touching. Was terrible to hear of his passing, years ago, yet he lives on !!! RIP Paul, take a ride on the ....

same happened to me, boy. Paul`s voice was absolutely *M*A*G*I*C* !

Listen to that voice! He truly deserved the name Chershemjer. :)

holy cow, great stuff. i read on the homepage for Paul that he taught himself Tuvan by english to russian and russian to tuvan dictionaries! that's astounding. what a guy.

In Braille. There were no English to Tuvan Braille dictionaries, hence why he had to first learn Russian.

My favorite music styles are Tuvan Throat Singing, Louisiana Zydeco, and Eastern European Gypsy music!

Love this ♥️🎸♥️🎸♥️🎸♥️🎸♥️🎸

Fantastic. Two brilliant musicians combining forces to great effect.

One of my all time favs!

simply amazing.

This is just fantastic! I'll go to Tuva one day to!

Paul coming in from under the basement. WOW

bought it a few years ago.... Amazing !!

from the missisippi delta to the plains of the inner mongolia...the guitar really went to places!!!

The documentary is one of the best I've seen in a while. I am so fascinated by Tuvan & Mongolian music. Before i knew about the Tuvan people it was neat to discover that the Aniu of Japan & the Inuit also throatsing. Thanks for posting this cool song..Love it! :)

This is some amazing music. I feel it from head to toe.

What an enjoyable performance! I have to watch this documentary.

saw the movie and he is great...the people of Tuva are people whit a great heart; and after the movie what is left is a gooooood -feeling.. :-)

Feel it, live it! A mate is on the way to Tuva, best wishes for him and his enterprise

So very excellent!

Beautiful.

This tune haunts me...

Wow!!! Unbelievably awesome! Love this repeatedly! ;D

Mind blowing, fucking amazing. enough said.

Verdadeira lição de cosmopolitismo. Blues + tuva + crioulo de Cabo Verde.

Ejem.... ¿two vocal cords?? Vocal cords or folds are ONE ORGAN which helps producing sound by vibrating as the air passes through. This video shows the tecnique called "overtone singing" ( "canto multifónico" en español), consisting in highlight some harmonic sounds over the basic tone.

Bravissimo!!!

dude that's awesome. i've done lsd. won't do it again but it was an experience i cherish. i believe everything happens for a reason. it is no coincidence a sober friend brought you the movie when you were in that state. for me, it was Demon Knight, a Tales From the Crypt movie, which a group of us rented in preparation for our first time. Hey, sometimes we don't have money to go on pleasure cruises or travel the country. Explore the place you're at now. sometimes we need help seeing our reality

Paul wasn't called "Earthquake" for nothing. Wow, what a voice during that kargyra ...

Wow... a happy wanderer invoking the accompaniment of some spirit friend for a ride ...

Wow, how they sang "Eki Attar" ;)

I HAVE to go to Tuva!

Thank you Fishingboy for the heads up! I love this!

Too cool!!!

wow superb!

We need more of this. Please and thank you. Wish I could say those words in every language. G'night n have a pleasant tomorrow.

Netflix has Genghis Blues on DVD. See it.

that is so bad ass

Great Sounds!! Gotta see the Movie! maybe it has a soundtrack

As great as it is listening to this type of throat singing, nothing compares to actually singing it yourself. I'm telling you, you don't need drugs, because this singing gets you high. I think there's something about having a fundamental tone and then an octave, twelfth, and then another 6th above that (which I guess would be an eighteenth) all ringing inside your head, that is so soothing, it's wonderful. Try it.

koyunbaba73 No. You are just ignorant. There are certainly some erroneous accusations circling around on the internet about improper Talmud translation. Irregardless, the true Hebrew passages show an undeniable prejudice toward anyone non-jewish. It is YOU who are unlearned and deeply hypocritical in your insults. My source of information is from a jewish Israelite scholar who spread the word about his hypocritical religion and clearly refused its immoral teachings.

Optimus Primal No, you're the one who is ignorant. And your Jewish friend doesn't know what he's talking about. And I'm not going to waste my time defending the only righteous country in the Middle East to people who have already made up their minds about what an evil place Israel is. I'll put it to you this way: I don't care what any of you think. I made a comment about singing. If you have nothing relevant to say about singing, then don't bother me. The fact that you people are frothing at the mouth about my picture, which has nothing to do with the video, just reveals what a bunch of obsessive Jew-haters you really are. You all should work at the UN.

Those in charge would sterilize and strip spirituality from music. The true nature of music is one of harmony and freedom. Thousands of miles of Earth separated these men and yet they were kindred spirits in song.

check out d throat singin wow I dig it
