I'm again much too busy for a proper BMoF; I was in Munich for FEW over the last few days, and I'm still working on the famous index of my forthcoming book (way more time-consuming than I thought it would be). But let me just post a song by Badi Assad, an amazing guitarist and singer. In fact, she should also be described as a percussionist, using her whole body as her instrument. She has an unbelievable mouth-percussion technique, and also uses the guitar for drumming. This is of course best appreciated in her live performances, so here's a video of her singing 'Ai que saudade d'oce'; it really goes beyond what seems to be humanly possible. (Too bad the sound of the video is so poor, but the performance is really something.)
