World 2006: a Selection of the Best Music from Around the World by BBC radio DJ Charlie Gillett
A fine two-disc assortment of flavours from the world music don. 2006 could be a significant date for world music in this country because, after many years of sterling service, Charlie Gillett is giving up his BBC London radio show. With it goes one of the UK's most inspired radio presenters, even though he will continue to do his BBC World Service slots as normal.
So it seems rather fitting that his latest compilation could also be one of his best. For a start there is an elegant flow of musical ideas from the beginning with Kevin Johansen's La Falla de San Andres right through to the Czech Republic's Tara Fuki on the first disc, and Mali's funky duo Amadou & Mariam through to Pakistan's Noor on the second.
Thrillingly filling in the spaces are true revelations such as Somalia's most gifted rapper K'naan and Russia's fiery nutty boys Leningrad. Other highlights include new French diva Camille and Franco-Iraqi combo Aïwa
