Anyone interested in world music?


John McLaughlin with Shiv Kumar Sharma. What an interesting and sophisticated performance.

Perhaps others can post something too.

This is truly "World" music because they borrow sounds from around the Globe. On "Kiko" they begin with Japan, stop in Africa, and then on to Australia.

I know I've posted "Yulunga" before, but I find it hypnotic.

Dead can dance "Rare Trax", this is more drums.

Enjoy the music.
I know Dead Can Dance well. Yulunga is great, so is Indus.

This is similar to Indus, but I like it even more.

Recently found this. Ponty's violin really sings.

Putumaya and "Rough Guide" labels/series are great samplers for finding world music. I pick them up whenever I can.

I'm not much of an album or single artist guy these days. I'm much more into finding the individual tracks or compositions that I really like. Even more so with World music, where I share fewer life experiences with the atists. So much good stuff out there to discover though!!!
