Oh Lark! You Sweet Little Chanter - 百靈鳥 - Zhou Xiaoyan - (≈1956)

I found this vinyl from Hong Kong in very poor condition in a second hand shop in Switzerland, covered in dust and the marks of time. I physically cleaned it as best as I could to make it playable, but I made the decision not to digitally restore or de-noise the audio. You will hear heavy crackles and surface noise. I believe these imperfections give the recording its charm and testify to its long history. This is the raw sound, exactly as it spins on my turntable. Inside the sleeve, I found fragile inserts that look like sheet music with Chinese lyrics. The date is an estimation. I haven't found any other trace of this specific recording on the internet even on discogs, and documentation is almost non-existent. Since I don't speak Chinese, it's hard for me to find precise context, but these appear to be traditional folk songs. If you enjoy this "hauntology" vibe and sounds from another time and place, the other 5 tracks from this EP are available on my channel. Note: I do not own the rights to this work.
