My Take
Zdravko Čolić is a name worth knowing far beyond the Balkans. Being compared to Paul McCartney and Tom Jones is no small thing, and surviving as a cultural icon through the turbulent breakup of Yugoslavia is even more remarkable. Born in Sarajevo in 1951 and university-educated there, he carries the weight of a whole region's musical memory in his voice. What fascinates me is how certain national singers transcend language entirely, communicating emotion through sheer presence. I haven't lived inside his catalog yet, but everything about his stature tells me he's an artist deserving of serious, unhurried listening.
