Posted by Sisca Cute Love U in *Music*, *North America*, U.S.A. on Thursday, April 1, 2010
A great cross section of ultra-legendary Gospel performers, somewhat to my surprise ignored by the Internet world. The track listing speaks for itself: 27 timeless songs from some of the best Gospel singers (and bands) of all times: Disc One 1. "Oh Happy Day" -The Edwin Hawkins Singers2. "He's Got The Whole World In His Hands" -Marion Williams3. "How Many Times" -Alex Bradford4. "Nobody
Steve Shehan & Baly Othmani - Assarouf (1997)
Here are some Amazon customers reviews (click here for more): «This is an amazing album. The Amazigh artist Othmani has created a once in a lifetime expression of the desert.

«The poetic and passionate music of a man who brings his ancient culture into the twentieth century, in collaboration with musicians from South America and the Ukraine.

Kolinda - Kolinda 6 (1988)
«Kick-butt underrated Hungarian band. They probably don't like to call themselves progressive but they're just as progressive as most other 70's output. They're also very innovative.

«Our musical “voyage” begins with the traditions of Cuban music, passing then through Brazil, Argentina and Venezuela, going back to its Hispanic origins. The strong acoustic impact and jazz language our music carries with it, takes us in a direction we could perhaps define as “Acoustic Latin Jazz” or “World Latin Jazz”. A characteristic of Alta Madera’s sound is definitely the absence of
Abou Chihabi - Folkomor Ocean (1997)

«Abou Chihabi is a folk singer and songwriter from Grande Comore who fights against social injustice and racial discrimination. Abou Chihabi chose to call his group "Folkomor Ocean" because his main source of inspiration is his native land, the comors, which is insular and which no distance will ever make him forget. Folkomor Ocean has been released in 1997 on Playa Sound» (Mondomix) «Abou
