This review is from: Music From Tanzania & Zanzibar, Vol. 1 (Audio CD)

The music contents is beautiful but is made up in a studio, a very easy way for white "musicians" to travel in Africa an taping music.

This review is from: Music From Tanzania & Zanzibar, Vol. 1 (Audio CD)

This CD of African music sounds a bit too organized and clean to be authentic. The charm and much of the soul of the tribal impression seems digitalized out to make a selling album out of it.

Pity.

I did however have part of the opening track »Kulumbu« as my ansaphone message a while ago. So the album is not useless. It's just too polished and undusty.
