Title: Buy Volumes 1-3, but forget Volume 4
Product review: I have greatly enjoyed Volumes 1-3 of these recordings. They give generous samples of a wide variety of Tibetan music ranging from several kinds of chanting to traditional folk-dance types of insturmental music that include varieties of percussion instruments. The fidelity, sterio seperation and general mixing are all excelent for field recordings made in the early 1970s. But Volume 4 was a real disappointment to me. The quality is fine, but all the tracks are single (folk-song) vocals with little or no instrumentation by singers who don't sing very well. Some people may appreciate this, but I never want to hear this CD again.
