Release Notes:

Review by Sean Westergaard
There were already a couple fine Yma Sumac
collections on the market when The Sun Virgin
appeared in 2006. The songs are all culled from
basically the same source material: her legendary
Capitol sessions from the '50s, so choosing between
them boils down to track selection and liner notes.
And with that criteria, The Sun Virgin goes to the
head of the class. At a generous 27 tracks (more
than any other compilation) it has tracks from four
of her five Capitol albums (including most of Voice
of the Xtabay), as well as her only Capitol single.
It's also got two tracks recorded in 1943 in Peru
that were reworked and retitled on later albums,
providing a glimpse of her very early career that
the other compilations don't offer. Finally, there
are excellent track-by-track descriptions that
provide a bit of analysis of the songs, as well as
historical details and a brief biography of her
early career. If you're unfamiliar with the amazing
talents of the utterly unique Yma Sumac, this is an
excellent place to start.
