Customer Reviews
The Spirit of Drumming
This is the first recording put out since Babatunde Olatunji passed away in 2003. Circle of Drums radiates with the spirit of drumming. Three drum masters: Baba Olatunji, P-Funk/Weather Report percussionist Muruga Booker, and long time Olatunji collaborator Sikiru come together and explore the rhythm, tone, and over tones of the drum and voice.
Not to be over looked, is the amazing mix by Chesky records. The mix brings the drums to life. It's like you are there. This CD plays on both regular CD players and SACD players. I do not own an SACD player but when I finally heard Circle of Drums on a surround sound SACD system I was blown away. It was as if I was surrounded by a circle of drummers and the clarity was amazing.
Circle of Drums is perfect to dance to, trance to, meditate to, or just enjoy. Baba Olatunji will be missed.
excellent mix
Just the excellent job of mixing done by Chesky alone is worth the money. An outstanding job of sound engineering.
Enjoy,

This is an excellent CD and I enjoyed it very much. It has a real spiritual energy to it and the drumming is top notch. Great sounding mix too.
