Typically varied Global Rhythm compilation. Music from all over the map – both literally and musically. Good stuff. From Global Rhythm magazine. This issue especially good.

*1. Freaky, fast, furious funk/punk/jazz/folk blend. Play it loud!
*2. Down/mid tango-influenced gypsy jazz w/great vox/bandoneon.
*3. Squeaky up blend of spy theme, jazz, & Bulgarian folk, w/tabla
*4. Toots does Police. Hip soul/reggae mix. Starts slow, picks up.
*5. Wicked cool, midtempo North African blues. Great stuff.
6. Samba/jazz blend w/kinda cheesy English/Spanish lyrics.
7. Hypno trippy jazz electronica w/English lyrics. Dark & dreamy.
*8. Romantic Gardel rework w/sexy fem vocals. Soooo smooth…
