Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2009
I am in a difficult position here of promoting an album that seems to have been discontinued by the manufacturer as of this writing. The recordings herein don't "belong" to anybody other than the UN organization that sponsored these cultural recordings in the 1970s. The music is in the purest and best sense of the word "primitive" - that is they give us a glimpse of real music traditions that may date back as far as 100,000 years! Naturally, then, these recordings belong to all of us. Every student, if not in high school then in college, should have this recording for its incredible anthropological significance. Yet, that is not why I recommend this recording. If one truly sits down and listens to this recording, especially to the Nzombi hockets or that opening Mongombi polyphony, one can't help being impressed and inspired, and if you happen to be a musician, influenced by the musicality of our ancient ancestors. I only hope that if this album isn't re-released, that the recordings live on in other productions.

Come sempre cd molto ricchi di punti etnomusicologici. Da ascoltare e da studiare. Per me molto ma molto interessante. Ovviamente per chi fa dell' ascolto musicale, una ricerca sonora .
