I think I bought this after walking into a music store where it was playing. Never heard anything like it! In 1992 Martin Cradick and his wife lived with the Baja Pygmies in the forest near the Cameroon/Congo border. They spent a good part of each day playing music with the Baja and recorded it. The album is a mixture of that and music written after they returned. I think it grew on me as I was looking at other stuff. Give it a chance.

From the Spirit of the Forest CD
