MARVELOUS.......2006-10-31

THIS CD FEATURES OBSCURE RECORDINGS OF FEMALE SINGERS FROM AROUND THE WORLD, RECORDED DURING THE 20'S & 30'S, FROM PLACES LIKE AFRICA, INDIA, MEXICO, SPAIN, GREECE, SOUTH AMERICA, ET AL. I HAVE NEVER HEARD ANY OF THESE SONGS BEFORE, AND I HAVE QUITE AN EXTENSIVE MUSIC COLLECTION. THE SOUND QUALITY IS NOT GREAT, BUT WHO CARES? ADMITTEDLY, IT TAKES A FEW LISTENS TO REALLY APPRECIATE, BUT THEN YOU REALIZE THAT THIS IS NOT ONLY GREAT MUSIC, BUT IT'S HISTORY AS WELL. OH, AND BY THE WAY, THE ARTWORK BY R. CRUMB IS GREAT, WORTH THE PRICE OF THE CD ALL BY ITSELF.

just amazing.......2004-01-23

This is one of the most extraordinary collections of vintage world music that I have run across. It is somewhat along the lines of the "Secret Museum of Mankind" series from a few years back, but compiler R.Crumb outdid himself in the selections and the sequencing, making it a big pleasure to listen to casually as well as to study with attention. The variety, the charm, the deep emotion, the strangeness and familiarity mixed together.... It's really impossible to recommend highly enough. The packaging is fun, too, by the way, with great Crumb artwork and his own notes to the music, hand-lettered in his distinctive style.

By the way, I want to take respectful exception to the previous reviewer's observation about sound quality. Yes, these are extremely old (in most cases 1920s & 1930s) and often primitively recorded performances, but I actually thought that the engineer, Tony Baldwin, did a very fine job with the old 78s, squeezing much character and sonic presence out of them. On the basis of this disc I'd put him in a class with Rich Nevins, who does the transfers of old blues and country discs for Yazoo Records. In any case, these certainly aren't hi-fi performances.....

Congrats to Crumb for making such great music available and enriching us in this special way.

Outstanding collection of pre-war gems. Only problem is that the overall sound should be a lot better. This probably should have been remastered by an expert
