Love is Love

This record is incredible, I hope if you read this you download it and enjoy it. Mississippi Records out of Portland OR. Tropicalia feel from all over Africa (Ethiopia, Kenya, Zambia, etc.).

Various Artists - Love is Love





Lungfish - Love is Love


These two albums have very little in common, and I'm not in anyway comparing their musical qualities in this juxtaposition, or maybe I am. Because surely there is something, but not really to be said or really contemplated, much.

    Just one listen and love is love is one of my top bring to the desert island because it's the only album you'll ever listen to again for sure. Many thanks for making this available. This music makes time blissful.

    Love Is Love is at the highest height. Love it Love at the deepest depth, alright. All I can say is, I had this on vinyl and someone stole it. It's the only record anyone has ever stolen from me. I really can't even be mad about it. I would want to take it too. Lungfish is the real deal.

    yeah mississippi records is awesome. too bad no one knows where the "70s thai" orchestra came from besides being a reissue of an equally mysterious release. either way my hardrive is now full and I must pursue on my quest for some allah rakha khan. i know it exist, theres just no older western releases i can find. if anyone knows where to find some email me wufrudelu@live.com

    this is great. there is a song listed as "Chemarocha" that I remember hearing on "The Secret Museum of the Air" on WFMU (childrens music episode. "Chemarocha" equals "Jimmy Rodgers"). I love that tune. Jimmy Rodgers WAS some kind of magical goat-man.

    Thank you for sharing your amazing collection of African music. I'd love to hear V/A Love is Love, but the link appears to be broken.
