Finally a Euro-ethno disc I don’t have to kvetch about. Lovers of those Bulgarian choirs, grrrlll groups, real field recordings, or even the Incredible String Band will get off on these droney, folky, rhythmic tunes with wonderful singers/players. On the tracks when all these voices gang up; watch out! Super. www.jewmu.com. Available at www.knittingfactory.com.
