Beautiful World Music

Might you have any to share?

Musafir have a lovely CD entitled Dhola Maru.

The intro to Halleriya gives me goose bumps, every time.

Used copies begin at 77 cents! You can hear short excerpts here:

(Browsing youtube, I find that since this recording, Musafir or a group with the same name have become pop stars, losing a vast amount of their roots...aw...)

:hi: Thank goodness for World Music and the Internet!

I've fallen in love with Baaba Maal. Please listen to the title cut of his CD "Television" at http://www.baabamaal.tv/ So dreamy. He's a superstar worldwide but in this new CD he's collaborated with a Brooklyn group called Brazilian Girls. One reviewer aptly described Maal as "successfully reaching towards Western ears without sacrificing integrity." Very surreal and cute video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d22Hvh-odGY
Another gorgeous song is "Tindo" that you can hear here http://www.baabamaal.tv/home.html.
