An amazing collection of music and reading. It is is the first survey of the 78 rpm record era in Southeast Asia, to my knowledge. This boxed set features 4 CDs with 90 tracks of music spanning six decades (1905-1966), and a 272-page book with essays and annotations by leading ethno-musicologists that is beautifully illustrated with more than 250 vintage photographs, record labels, and sleeves. In the age of the download, this is the proof that real, in-your-hands music and books are still not only important, but rewarding to the extreme.
