Pompuang Duangjan was the queen of lukthung, a national star. She died tragically in 1992 aged 31. Her status has been likened to that of Japan's Hibari Misora. She has not been forgotten and is still considered as Thailand's greatest singer for the breathtaking emotion and ornamentation she brought to her songs. She later sang a lot of pop material, but this is an album of her early and classic tracks when Pompuang was singing the rootsiest luthung. Mainly western instrumentation, with some Thai instruments too and her superb singing.

Another brilliant album of early Pompuang Duangjan. Much loved even today, she is the singer today's stars still aspire to. Her fame and legend has even spread to neighbouring Cambodia, whose singers also cover songs she made famous. Strong Thai elements on this fantastic album.

More classsic Pompuang Duangjan tracks from the late 70s and early 80s. The songs relate stories of farmers, taxi drivers, leaving the countryside for the big city, these lyrics one reason why ordinary Thai's took her to their hearts so much.

Their music is a blend of glam disco, electronic 80s synthesized pop, punk, techno and Brit pop (if that's possible). They also write some pretty catchy tunes, while singer Gene Futon can sound like Bryan Ferry, so its all very accessible. This is the Japanese edition of the CD.
