Any early Ronald Shannon Jackson/Decoding Society album is bliss (plus there's Vernon Reid there too). "Drums of Death" (recorded in Ghana, on Avant) is definitely worth hearing- a shame that none of the musicians were credited though. "Yoruba Drums From Benin, West Africa" on Smithsonian is pretty good also. Best, Jason Perfect Sound Forever online music magazine perfect-sound@furious.com http://www.perfectsoundforever.com
