WBF's an expensive hobby. I think that 9 out of the last 10 albums I bought because of recommendations here.
World Music Reboot
- Thread starter JackD201
- Start date
NATSU NEBUSTSU - Yasukazu Amemiya
This was played for me by a close friend who loved percussion music. This LP has awesome dynamics with lightning fast transients that could 'scare' the listener once in a while.
Exotic, oriental percussion at its finest, just take a look at the list of 'instruments' below.
Below is the 'drum set':

Listened to this one last night:
BTW, Zoho music is a terrific little label, http://zohomusic.com/index.php. Superb musicians and usually very well recorded.

Tango anyone?
Currently listening to Astor Piazzolla's "Tango Zero Hour".
Piazzolla declares on the back cover "This is absolutely the greatest record I've made in my entire life. We gave our souls to this record." I can't disagree.
Rare as hen's teeth on vinyl, but easy to find CD

Saudades - Dom Um Romao
Water Lily Acoustics. A bit deep initially, but after a while the I got to appreciate the music better. Great soundstage. Can sound a bit 'dark' overall, but I guess Water Lily has that 'signature' in their records.

This is OOP for vinyl, but it is still available as a CD, XRCD2, and Hi-Rez DVD ROM. The XRCD2 is superbly recorded and these are available from MA Recording:

I agree Rich
I have had this album for years
Renaud Garcia-Fons may be the world's greatest living bassist and one of my favorite musicians.

His most recent CD "Mediterranees" is an exploration of music from the countries surrounding the Mediterranean Sea.
His previous release "La Linea Del Sur" was one of the best releases in 2009.
Both CDs have outstanding sonics and are a real system test for dynamics and bass quality.
Here is a concert clip of the title track from "La Linea Del Sur" to get a flavor:

Don't know if I've posted this recently, but I'm listening to:
Fabulous music!! And the CD before was:

The Tom and Ellis Album is one of the 10 Best Album of All Time in my Book .. This woman has a voice and a technique as well as sensibilities that are almost unique.. One of the best vocalists the world has known IMO and that of others.. A MUST album for any fan of "World Music" and while we are at it :
Manu Dibango made a splash in the USA with the hit " Soul Makossa". He is however an accomplished musician, excellent band leader and a world-class saxophonist ...
