Vol 3 is usually the one singled out as best from the first batch of five. I've heard all these but not enough to make real distinctions yet. However I loved Mahmoud Ahmed's Ere Mela Mela when I heard it in the mid-80s; that's now Vol 7 but I haven't heard this new CD edition.

Come on now, don't pretend like you never masturbated and enjoyed it... granted, you probably never did it in public (although some other great musicians have done just that). It intrigues me to think that this guy spent hours and hours in his bedroom practicing and listening to Malmsteen, Randy Rhoads, Shawn Lane, etc, honing his skills to form a uniquely defined sound. I can dig it once in a while. I certainly don't find it offensive to the point I need to speak out about it. Not that you arent entitled to do that!! <BR>

They might actually get to collaborate with her sometime. Skuli Sverrison, great bassist and friends with Chris and Jim, is also from Iceland and good friends with Bjork. I would love to hear those guys play with her. Her album "Homogenic" does it for me.<BR>

_KoB_ was also one of my early Miles albums too, but I got it *after* buying
most of the 70's stuff. Got to admit that this is the first time I've seen
the album under the "elevator music" moniker. Sex music maybe, but elevator
music? Hmmm...explains that warm feeling riding up to the 39th floor...

I missed it! I'd be interested in an opinion too...that one on Sound Aspects
is right up there in the "classics" range.
Wow...Sound Aspects...what a supurb label *that* one was.

Wow. None? I must admit a preference to his "composed/big-band" stuff over
the free-blowing albums. I'm not dissing you in the least, but I'd think
that anyone into any kind jazz could find a few Ra albums to enjoy out of his
vast oeuvre. Have you tried the early Delmark-label albums? Classics, those.

Steve F. at Wayside Music first pointed out this series to me...on this
listserv, I think. I agree- it's a darned fine one too, and fairly easy to
find, unlike many African music compilation series I've searched for. I'm a
bit behind with them as I've only picked up through Vol. 5.
Do wish that Dakar Sound-label stuff from the 80's had been a bit easier to
find. It has/had similarities to the _Ethiopiques_ stuff to my ears, but
with a great psychedelic edge.
