Well thanks Zach, hope I haven't set the bar too high - I'm sure it's all downhill from here...

I've wanted to check out Balkan Beat Box due to the Firewater connection, but never get around to it. Must do something about that.

BBB has developed a great live show too, the energy is always amazikng, definitely worth checking them out...

Sat. 12/29/07 6:47pm From: julian

huh? just ONE favourite? give me an hour or two to break down my shortlist....

Nebine by Malouma is one of my favorites too. First learned about her through Songlines - she's the real thing, a genuine militant singer. I linked to her homepage here:

Little Cow: Virágok A Réten gets the family vote for song of the year
Segu Blue or Made in Dakar have to be up there for top album
Ethiopiques, African Pearls 'Teranga Spirit and Rumba on the River (or were they 2006?) among the best comps.
Mayumi Kojima best new local discovery (but not really so new)

Hmm, if this is my idea of 'one', how am I gonna cope with that tricky maths question?

Sat. 12/29/07 7:44pm From: Zach in philly

"Descarga Inez" is taking my vote at present. It has me bouncing up and down and all around!-)
Great stuff all along but this one stands out~
