Description
Like a musical onward march, the O-Rama volumes from the Jukebox Music Factory just keep a'comin'... And like all the series of this rich collection, the Exotic fringe is back too, with this its fourth farandole of foreign flavors. Like its sister compilations, this one boldly forges forward, to explore new unhabitual horizons, to discover unsuspected audio landscapes and unearth long-forgotten gems. From India (Balsara) to Benin (Orchestre Les Volcans De Porto Novo & Joseph Atchade), from Sudan (Abou Arky Elbekeet) to Lebanon (Sabath), embark upon a true melodic journey for a real change of scenery. As for the North American tracks, they reveal a marked taste for the exotic, for the strange and far-flung: exciting rhythms (Sir Raybould, Don Ralke), thunderous voices (The Journeymen, The Nobletones, The Crew Cuts), keyboards that swerve and sway (The Rhoda Scott Trio, Hank Jacobs)... in other words, yet more wonderful discoveries by El Vidocq.
