Inside The Groove

A very interesting recording of Iran music and rhythms.

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

All the materials on this LP were recorded in Iran and edited by the famous Deben Bhattacharya. It is a pity that the recorded sound quality is not good, but the music itself is very interesting to listen to.

Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)

5 out of 10
