Top 10 World Music Albums – October 2010
- AfroCubism: AfroCubism
- Clay Ross: Matuto
- The Kora Band: Cascades
- Natacha Altas: Mounqaliba
- Peña : Pena
- Huun Huur Tu: Ancestors Call
- Mardi Gras.BB: Von Humboldt Picnic
- Dave Holland & Pepe Habicheula: Hands
- Axum: Axum
- Rahim Alhaj: Little Earth
New on this month's chart are the delicious Afro-Latin album AfroCubism (rocketing to #1), the Brazilian sounds of Matuto, Peruvian percussion from Peña, Tuvan folk from Huun Huur Tu, eclectic global jazz-folk from Mardi Gras.BB, and flamenco jazz from Dave Holland & Pepe Habichuela. Seems the music gets stronger as we get closer to year's end. Maybe that's a deliberate attempt to pry songs into our minds as the time nears for those best-of-2010 lists, but with great stuff like this, who's complaining? Check out any of these albums, and you won't be disappointed.
