Lula quartet - A boghe notte (1961)

Here is a rare recording that was superlatively hidden in the hard-to-find Italian Folklore archive. These recordings are very very rare, and aren't findable on any buyable CD's, which sucks. This is why I'm trying to reach a much wider audience and to bridge the Italian to English-speaking gap with very unique and cool music which is often overlooked and wrongly kept secret. This is a recording of a Sardinian throat-singing group from Lula, Nuoro, Sardinia, recorded on May 6, 1961. Unfortunately, none of the recordings' titles or descriptions whatsoever ever mention names, only places and whether it's a trio, quartet, etc. So, unfortunately we only know the voice parts. Most throat-singing groups consist of a shepherd voice that sings the words, a goat-voice, a sheep and a cow, representative of different animals being taken care of by a shepherd - as Sardinia has a very strong pastoral connection. While the sheep and cow voices sound to be the same throughout the other 1961 Lula recordings including this one, the shepherd and goat are different in this recording.
