		Radio Arman, with its listener-friendly concept, has divided this city of 3 million on the Hindu Kush.

	Reason Magazine - Kabul Goes Cool
		Even Kabul's satire magazine—the Taliban didn't think it was very funny—has now resumed publication, one of over a hundred new periodicals that have been registered with the U.S.-backed government of Hamid Karzai.
		The returning Afghans are adding these influences to the nation's own varied cultural traditions, including those budding modernizations—such as the rise of a pop music industry—that were interrupted by a communist regime, a long and terrible civil war, and the afflictions of the psychotic Taliban.
		Kabul is hardly going to make a transition from utter cultural constraint to the dynamism of the fertile verge without problems.

		Prior to the advent of broadcast radio in the 1940s, musicians in Afghanistan held an indeterminate place in their culture: many were cultivated by the rich as a source of entertainment, yet there were still largely associated with questionable social elements (taverns, houses of ill repute, etc.) and seen as marginal figures, near outcasts.
		This album was recorded in honor of the musicians of Radio Kabul, who were persecuted under the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, and banned under the hyper-Islamist Taliban, which suppressed popular song and banned musical instruments altogether.
		The ensemble is led by the elder Hossein Arman, one of the original musical composers of the Radio Kabul broadcast station (the others died under deprivation or in exile), and his son, multi-instrumentalist Khaled Arman, who co-founded the Ensemble Kaboul with his father.
