Emir Kusturica & The No Smoking Orchestra - Unza Unza Time (Full Album)

Tired of not finding this great full album online, I decided to upload it. Enjoy! After a long time I’ve finally found and was able to upload the other version of this album, which includes the songs missing in this Latin American release version.

Now one of the band’s guitarists, he contributes sparingly toward songwriting and arranging. This is still the band of lead singer Dr. Nelle Karajlic, whose acerbic vocals and commanding presence dictate the group’s course. But colorful instruments like balalaika, tuba, accordion, trumpet, and accordion contribute significantly as well. The term “Unza Unza“ describes the hybrid of music found on this record. The Balkans are a centrally located region surrounded by Turkish, European gypsy, Greek, Russian, Middle Eastern, and Italian music. German and Spanish music is also welcome into this interwoven musical fabric that cites the local music of Romania, Serbia, Hungary, Albania, Bosnia, and Bulgaria as its foundation. The ’70s punk sound that was No Smoking’s initial influence is all but abandoned here, although Karajlic still retains some of his snarling and loathsome attitude. Combine that with the eclecticism of groups like Reptile Palace Orchestra and Brave Combo and the offbeat tendencies of mid-’80s Tom Waits, and perhaps a rough portrait of this group can be painted. This is an incredibly unique album that is essential listening for fans of alternative world music.
