Notes:

"This collection was culled from over 150 ravaged cassettes found in Oakland, California at the public library's Asian branch. Most of the tracks were recorded post-Pol Pot holocaust between the 1970s and 1990s in Khmer-operated studios spread throughout the geography of the diaspora-from Cambodia and Thailand to Massachusetts, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Long Beach & Stockton (California) and points inbetween. Tracks 4, 5, 8, 11, 12 and 20 were recorded in Cambodia between the mid-1960s and early 1970s. Tracks are notated where possible."

Track 7 - recorded in 1987 - an adaption of a Thai classic by Chai Muang Sing.
Track 15 - recorded 1984 in France.

Compiled and edited by Mark Gergis between 1999 and 2004.

Graphics from original cassettes and materials found at the Asian Branch of the Oakland Public Library, California.
