The Rough Guide to the Music of the Gypsies

I have yet to be disappointed by any collection in the Rough Guide series, and The Rough Guide to the Music of the Gypsies is no exception. Once again, the compilers help us explore the world from our living rooms, this time by putting together an impressive mix of Roma music, following the Gypsy trail from India to Turkey to Hungary to Spain.The music of the Gypsies incorporates many of the instruments and folk traditions of the lands they have resided in, while maintaining a distinctive Roma flavor. This CD offers a wonderful overview of various Gypsy styles, which are as different from each other as classical is from rock. The album includes such celebrated groups as Musafir and Taraf de Haodouks, but there are also such delightful lesser-known performers as Eleni Vitali (on "Song of the Gypsies") and the emotionally intense Kostas Pavlidis (on "Jastar Amenge Dur").

Chicken Skin Music

This 1976 effort contains some of Cooder's most compelling work and finds him re-exploring some of the fundamental influences on a musician known for remarkable eclecticism. Most notable are "Always Lift Him Up", "Smack Dab in the Middle", and a beautiful adaptation of "Stand By Me" (which includes Flaco Jimenez on accordion.) The album opens and closes with covers of Leadbelly, namely "The Bourgeois Blues" and (you guessed it) "Goodnight Irene". Also notable is a fine reworking of the traditional number "I Got Mine". --Wayne Pernu
