Sounds of the World: Illustrations Sonores Review

by Bradley Torreano

Sounds of the World is literally a collection of sound effects from around the world. Everything from tropical birds to Indian railroad stations are included, but the album was released in France, so without a knowledge of the French language, the packaging is not that much of a help.
