Album Reviews
Soulfully assembled by music scholar and BBC DJ Charlie Gillett, this two-disc set surveys established and upstart acts on the world-music scene, particularly those from West Africa, near the Mediterranean and on Madagascar. Neither purely traditional nor crassly trendy, these thirty-three tracks serve as entryways into the distant but contemporary sounds of France's Manu Chao, Algeria's Rachid Taha and much more.
