LW> Some excellent singing with Strandzhanskata bitov group.... very authentic sounding... and simple. On the other hand, the accordion tunes accompanied by the Dobroudzha Ensemble are terrible (way to arranged) |

LW> I was VERY surprised to hear a bass guitar on essentially all of the tracks. While the general musicianship is excellent, I think the bass guitar detracts from the traditional nature of the music that the album proports to represent. |
