Before we close the year here are a few albums form the World music section I played over the holidays.
An oldie from 1990
Recorded in Brussels: the album Set from Youssou n'Dour from Senegal. Especially the song Xale is beautiful!
And two new discoveries.
A great instrumental from Anouar Brahem from Tunisia: Souvenance from 2015. A fantastic blend from classical, jazz and Arab music. My favorite track: on the road.
Last but not least a great Afro-Cuban artist: Dayme Arocena. A mix of African, Cuban, jazz, dance, lounge. A top album from start to finish. The new era in Cuba is reflected in this album Nueva Era.
