Any archival released focused on a specific geographic location who's liner notes START with the description of a glacier's path through said region tens of thousands of years ago...you know you're getting the good shit.

I could wax rhapsodic here, but all you need to know is that this survey of gems recorded in the Wisconsin studios of Cuca Records is downright charming. From literal field recordings of birds, through polka professionals and amateurs with nothing else but a song and a dream...this record encapsulates just about everything I love about the compilation form...most of all, teaching me about something I was previously just about ignorant of. Dig in.
