Enjoy the valuable and rarest musical pieces.

The Music of Primitive Man LP published in 1973 presents a well-curated selection of 50 field recordings made in time-honored traditional primal cultures in the Americas (Canada, Colombia, Brazil, Guyana, Venezuela, Peru), Asia (Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia), Oceania (New Guinea, Australia, Tonga, Fiji), Africa (Botswana, Namibia, Congo), and Europe (Finland).

This global panorama offers a fascinating immersion into bygone worlds filled with a strong collective identity, sense of purpose, creativity, and a deep connection with nature and the supernatural. The delicate, otherworldly, and abstract sonorities here include singing, imitations of animal sounds, xylophones, a likembe, gongs, flutes, panpipes, whistles, musical bows, lyres, drums, clapping, a didjeridoo, a Jew's-harp, and a bullroarer.
