bremble lamented that Henry Threadgill's Too Much Sugar For a Dime is out of print, and so it is from Columbia, but it's now available in a new Mosaic set:
I was pretty pleased with it myself. Interested to note from the review that this guy is (or was) in Fremont, Calif., as part of a large Afghan community there.
@ Doofy: That's a great disc, perhaps one of the first 25 I dl'd from eMu, as is In the Footsteps of Babur (a collaboration of Central and South Asian artists, including Sakhi)
So it looks like all Smithsonian albums are currently album priced at the number of tracks in the album. I don't know if it's a mistake or what but I sure wish I had some credits.
ac2, you can always booster up! Tracks as low as 0.50 a pop. :-/ I just used up an old BB card, thinking it was probably my fond farewell to eMusic. Wound up adding about 20 new albums to my S4L.
Btw, you will never guess the eMu genre of this fine album of Afghani music. Jah mon.
Decided to try out mtracks and finally got this album that's been on my radar since one track was a daily download. If mtracks could bring in a couple more indie labels they would definitely be an eMu replacement for me.

On the contrary, I'd expect anyone familiar with international/ethnic music offerings on eMusic to be intimately aware of the ubiquitous fact that they are tagged as genre=Reggae. It's a longstanding classic data ingest FAIL on emusic's part - reps have blamed the distributors, but I find it hard to believe that nearly EVERYTHING in that category from multiple sources is tagged the same wrong way, unless it's emusic's fault.

wipes the floor with Freedom's Children if you ask me...and I don't think you will.
On the third listen or so I'm enjoying it more.
progressive undergarmet jazz from early 70s
Damn Right.
And now back to:
I ordered this directly from the label, Nimbus West.
If Spiro Agnew hated it, that makes it good in my book.
Dancing between "WAKE UP" and "shh, lil' sleepyhead."
Small Craft On A Milk Sea
In a year of great music, this will probably just miss my best of list.
Novus & Columbia Recordings of Henry Threadgill & Air
If you like Threadgill but don't have the bulk of those records, it's probably essential.
I was looking for something cool and different with my last 3 credits, and I found it.
Here is the Folkways Central Asian music series. The discs come packaged with DVDs.

I guess since I'm currently on 50% off I might as well spend the balance on boosters...
And really isn't everything reggae when you get down to it?
