4.0 out of 5 stars it's fun, but I'd get a different one next time, February 28, 2005

This review is from: Tradition (Eskimo, Inuit Music) (Audio CD)

I heard a couple of songs off of "Throat Singing" by Alacie and Lucy and loved them, but I bought this CD instead, thinking that if I liked that, I might like to listen to a broader selection of Inuit music. Well, this CD contains 7 of the 14 tracks on "Throat Singing," and they are (to me) by far the best tracks on the CD. So, now I am going to buy "Throat Singing" to get the other 7 songs!

If you really want an array of Inuit folk and modern music, this is a nice collection, but if you mostly intrigued by the throat singing, I'd say just go for the "Throat Singing" album, as you won't find the rest of these tracks as interesting as that stuff.

5.0 out of 5 stars A curious fan of the Inuit, June 16, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Tradition (Eskimo, Inuit Music) (Audio CD)

It's pretty amaising to see and hear what the Inuit culture is like especialy all on one CD and the booklet with outstanding photos and description of how and why they do what they do is very informative.

I'd love to write a review but I've been waiting 2+ months for the cd and it's still not in sight!! I saw the women in person and was awed by their talent. PLEASE send the cd! Megwetch, Carole
