Sarajevo Blues

I found this band from San Francisco called Charming Hostess who turned "Sarajevo Blues" into an album. They essentially took some of the passages and just set them to music, but it's an interesting way to hear Mehmedinovic's work.

Also, here is a link to a Flickr page with pictures of "Sarajevo roses." They are concrete scars from mortar shell explosions that have been filled with red resin. I cannot imagine how many there must be around the city. Amazing how beautifully tragic these "roses" are:
