Damon Albarn, Afel Bocoum, Toumani Diabate & Friends

Mali Music (Honest Jon's 5384402). Distributor: EMI. Dealer price: 8.99 [pounds sterling].

Thanks to Blur frontman Albarn, a whole new audience have been introduced to the joys of Malian music. Although criticised by some world music zealots and purists, this is a fine and interesting album which continues to sell almost two years after its release.

Bob Brozman and Debashish Bhattacharya Mahima (Riverboat Records TUGCD1029). Distributor: New Note/Pinnacle. Dealer price: 7.89 [pounds sterling].

Initially a blues player, Radio Three Awards nominee Bob Brozman is now widely regarded as a leading authority on steel guitars and is perhaps the most prominent exponent of the Hawaiian slide guitar. Here he collaborates with Hindustani slide guitar virtuoso Debashish Bhattacharya on a stunning album which was released by a separate label within the World Music Network structure in June last year.

The Buena Vista Social Club

Buena Vista Social Club (World Circuit WCD050). Distributor: New Note. Dealer price: 8.29 [pounds sterling].
