"All
you Mississippi Records fanatics should just stop reading now and click
on the ADD TO CART button, because there's just no question that you
are going to want, nay NEED this! Baltimore-based record store owner
and record collector Ian Nagoski (who also compiled the excellent Black
Mirror compilation for Dust-To-Digital) has put together another
stunning collection of vintage 78 recordings from around the globe
spanning between 1918-1952: Tanbur improvisations from Turkey,
Vietnamese classical chamber music, Greek cabaret, Jamaican rural folk,
Serbian dance, Spanish prayer song, Romanian Jewish mourning song,
Italian opera, Highland Music of West Java; Arab classical music, Zuni
Indian harvest chants, Ukrainian Hutzel music, Hindustani classical
singing and Armenian folk music. Whew! It's a whirlwind tour of the
world in beautiful, lonely and sometimes devastating bursts, colliding
folk and popular styles, upper and lower classes, the famous and the
obscure in a captivating melange of audio wonder. And apparently,
there's more to come as this release also marks the debut of Nagoski's
Canary Records imprint dedicated to International musical obscurities
and the stories that hide within. Extensive liner notes with pictures
included. Amazing!!"
