The World of Sabu (CD)

This strange collection assembled by Cherry Red's El Records imprint is an aural representation of the career of India's international film superstar Selar Shaik Sabu, who got his first break in 1937 when he was 12. Sabu was plucked out of the street literally to star in an Alexander Korla production of The Thief of Baghdad, and two years later in the first screen version of Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book. The third film represented here was Black Narcissus, released in 1947 as Sabu's brief tenure at the top was already winding down. He played minor characters for the rest of his life. The music here is all schlock, with some decent but completely incidental narration by Sabu. This is the kind of stuff film and soundtrack collectors go crazy for but everyone else ignores, for good reason. The music is awful and overblown and recorded badly. It doesn't even hold the listener's interest on an exotica level. Avoid. ~ Thom Jurek
