Notes inserted in container.
"Thailand offers some of Asia's most pulsating sounds ... lukthung, the central region 'country' music ... and morlam, from an area that very few visitors venture to, Isaan, in the northeast ... Morlam, in its modern form, is rhythmically powerful and vocally dynamic and is popular throughout Thailand"--Container.
