Alike Elvis, let's say alike him, he would not have his grand concerts recorded. The spiritual songs (inclusive Mussorgsky) he has released, but unfortunately, not the very many others for for the posterity ...

Martti Talvela was one of the most endearing singers in the history of music. He was a giant of a man, both physically & musically. He was, to the basso, what Pavarotti was to the tenor. Both had such a broad range & sang effortlessly. And both had such powerful instruments.

What a great voice. Toivo Kuula was a cousin of my great grandfather's. Nice to hear the music.
