...some of us need to answer the unanswerable questions.

Here is my unanswerable question; Why the hell does the intersection of interstate 40 and 25 back up for miles all day? Okay so I've got another; does it take an architect to draw a Pueblo House or just a 2nd grader with a box of crayons?

I'm sorry, I have some unresolved issues with Albuquerque

Okay, okay, here is something constructive, Exotica music sometimes has a North African vibe, there is The Girlfriend Of The Whirling Dervish - Martin Denny or Caravan - 80 Drums Around The World
Morracco was and is a melting pot of societies and people, Fes, (fez) Berber (not the carpet) Andalusian, Portugal, Spain, all sea travlers, bringing Morracco to the Islands and the Islands to Morracco. It all goes together, Fez, monkeys, Madagascar, New Zealand, Polynesian, Hawaii, Les Baxter and Denny. See? all together now, I like to move it move it...

..and to further this line of thinking..surf music has a heavy middle eastern connection as well as spanish.....it draws it's influence from both these cultures style of music, which is why you hear similiarites between them and surf music on occassion...
