i usually buy records for the sounds...you want a rare record that resembles an island recording but really has roots in jazz...it's a vibraphone record by lionel hampton on the Decca label called "Moonglow" he is accompanied by a hammond B3 but LH's mallets are percussive as only primitive tunes can be...

covers are covers...i can't make time to list the specific records but i like anything with james flora or david stone martin art on it...album art is an indistry that has made well for itself as long as white men have been selling records to minorities nationwide

for sounds and graphics let's face it...labels are dependable as ever...rounder arhoolie folklyric and others are like cap'n crunch peanut butter crunchies as is hanaola reocrds...

any SOLOIST that'll pluck a stringed box and sing falsetto like they are shot i'll love no matter who they are...just do it slowly and deliver it in a personal way...drum cirles are great fun too especially if birds are nearby...smoke and mirrors...pullies and levers
