Colin Currie Group's Steve Reich Drumming!

Hi everyone,

I'm a great fan of Steve Reich, a modern classical composer sometimes grouped with Terry Riley & Philip Glass as "minimalists." This album by the Colin Currie Group is an interpretation of Reich's early 1970s' African-inspired piece of the same name. I read that Reich himself felt this was an excellent version of his piece. It starts so . . . mildly . . . but pretty madness ensues. Really really good! :)

PeaceNstarZ,
