THE RAMADHAN SPECIAL 2016
Well, in a few days the Ramadhan will start and I always love that month. For one, there's always less traffic here in Bandung and every day my wife and daughter get up around 3 AM to eat. I always do two specials every year, one at Christmas and one when the Ramadhan starts and this year I've got some really nice music for you.....
Starting off with this fantastic Gambang Kromong album from Vivi Sumanti and Frans Daromes with music from Orkes Gambang Naga Sakti, really some incredible music on this one.....

SJEF VAN OEKEL - OEI, OEI, DAT WAS LEKKER
Sjef van Oekel was a popular TV comedy character created by Dutch artist Wim T. Schippers and played by Dutch comedian, singer and actor Dolf Brouwers (1912–1997). Van Oekel started as a side character in De Fred Hachéshow in 1972, but became such a cult figure that he gained his own television show, Van Oekel's Discohoek, songs and even a comic strip, all written by Schippers.
Well, that was from wikipedia....
When I was a kid we always watched his shows, if my grandparents were there they would often get get up-set, it was total craziness, outrageous and incredibly funny....
Here's a 7":
