Subj; book recommendation

	Someone mentioned 'Music of the Whole Earth' by David Reck
(not Beck). I second the recommendation. It's an excellent book,
which attempts to speak comprehensively about all music (western
classical, contemporary, Indian, Blues, Rock, African, etc.).

	I don't know if it's still in print (I bought it nearly 10
years ago). If not, check your library.

p.s. It's full of gorgeous pictures. Even if you aren't in the mood
to read all of it, take a browse through the pictures.
