Description

 I hope the information is correct - I'm not used to selling records.  These seem to be in great condition, almost unplayed, so I called them "near mint".  I'm not sure what the other categories are, but feel free to contact me with any  questions.  


This is from the insert:  ETHNIC FOLKWAYS LIBRARY EFL - 1410 Copyright 1949


Introduction and Notes: "The Folk Music of Cuba is generally unknown outside of that country. For most of us the term "Afro-Cuban"stirs up thoughts of La Conga, the Rhumba, and the Son. Folk music they may be, but with a thick overlay of sophistication and invention; yet in the main they are not "Afro-Cuban", any more than Boogie-Woogie is "Afro-American".  Such forms represent a considerable hybridization, and in particular instances it would be extremely difficult to find substantial African elements. 

Among the Guahiros, or white peasant farmers of the Interior, one may still hear fragments of very old Iberian music that has little in common with the popular city music. Likewise, among their Negro Neighbors one may hear true Afro-Cuban, even pure African, music.  " etc.  etc.


Includes music of the cults of: Lucumí, The Arará, The abakwá and the Kimbísa. These are explained in the notes, as well as much other information about the recordings.  A rare find.



Thanks for looking and good luck. Please see my other items (mostly books) listed on eBay.
