 Worth it just for the 1940s tracks
Submitted on: 2009-05-29 |
|
I have CDs of all the music on this compilation, except for the 1940s tracks. If you are considering this to sample Yma Sumac, it is a fine choice. If you are a collector, or fan, the old tracks make this worth while.
Yma Sumac has to be heard to be believed. |

Phenomenal Double CD
Submitted on: 2008-11-23 |
|
| I purchased this CD just a couple of weeks before Yma Sumac's passing (on November 1 2008). There are 54 songs here, several of which I did not have (recorded in Argentina in 1943). Even with the primitive recording techniques of that time, Ms. Sumac's magnificent voice can be heard in it's formative (but still formidable) stage. Included here are her three songs from the very rare Broadway musical, "Flahooley," which she appeared in. The liner notes are excellent, & there's an early B&W photo of her that's fascinating. For those of you who have all her LPs & previous CDs, this set is a must-have, just for the 1943 recordings alone. For those of you who haven't heard Ms. Sumac's singing, be warned that she is an experience like none you have ever heard before. |

The Best Collection to Date!
Submitted on: 2005-12-11 |
|
| This CD is the most complete collection to date, for it includes the best tracks from ALL Yma Sumac albums, INCLUDING her terribly rare pre- America album, recorded in Argentina in 1943. It is fascinating to hear her vocal improvements as she grew into a mature woman. In the liner notes are rare photos (only ever seen on her official site, www.yma-sumac.com (don't forget the hyphen!). This is a TWO CD set, with beautifully remastered sound. For the die-hard fans, this is a must. For the new fans, this is a glorious and thorough introduction into the magical world of Yma Sumac. |
