African memories January 13, 2007
I really love this CD. I had heard it at a friend's house and promptly went on the web to find it. The music is very soothing and evoccative of the animals that it represent. I had the good fortune to go Africa last year and this CD brings back wonderful memmories of the sights and sounds that I experienced. I'm not usually into animal sounds or sounds of nature music, but I must say that this one is really well done and makes you feel that you are there. Very spiritual.

There's a very special track on this album, called "Flamingo Feast"--or track number 2.

When I listen to this excellent piece of music and nature sounds I feel as if I'm in Eastern Africa, early in the morning, and observing a large flock of flamingos. There's mist in the air, and a special coolness, but warmth in the sky. Suddenly the sun begins to rise with the increasing rhythm of the music, and you are watching a visual feast!

This one track always makes me feel SO alive and yet, relaxed. I reccommend this album to anyone who dreams of going to Africa, but can't live up to it yet! You truly will get a sense of this land...and for a great price.

Nice relaxing CD that leaves a person feeling happy and vibrant. The mix of animal sounds and rhythmic music gives the CD a really soothing yet inspiring quality. My two year old loves bopping to it.
