Yma Sumac - Recital Yma Sumac FLAC download

It's a repress in 180 Gram, that was not specified in the index.

This is the only legitimate release of the 1961 Romanian LP and features one additional track that the original LP did not include. This CD provides an excellent example of an Yma Sumac concert while she was in her prime and even includes a couple tracks by the Inca Taki Trio, Yma Sumac's original group after arriving in the U.S. and prior to her Capitol Records releases. Made from the original master tapes that were hand-carried by the original label. Electrecord, the sound quality is excellent and would be superb with a bit of mastering as it was recorded originally for a TV broadcast. Vinyl and CD releases from 2013 with different covers are bootlegs and must be avoided.

This is a bootleg release that uses my booklet notes without permission and was made after it was expressly forbidden to do so. If you want to hear this material, instead get the 2006 CD or the 2012 CD reissue, both of which have the red top band on the cover. Both the LP and CD from 2013 with the cover shown here were made illegally and suffer in quality compared to the other two.

Great live performance of one of the greatest voices in musical history! Recommend to listen to 'Taita Inti' and 'Chuncho' - I know nothing comparable. Mystic!
