PUTUMAYO WORLD MUSIC

[jenni_blog]

Putumayo World Music, established in 1993, is a record label specializing in compilation CDs of world music. The name "Putumayo" comes from the river that flows along the border between Peru and Colombia in South America.

Each CD has a unique cover designed by the artist Nicola Heindl.

I bought one of their food-themed discographies called "Music From the Wine Lands". It's fantastic, so I ordered two more: "Music From the Coffee Lands" and "Music From the Chocolate Lands".



Here is a sampling of some of the album covers and titles.











And here are some vids of some of the songs I'm listening to.

"A valsa dos amantes" by Jorge Fernando

"Dentro la Tasca di un Qualunque Mattino" by Gianmaria Testa

"Puerto Claridad" by Amparanoia

"Cafe Cubano" by Rene Ferrer

I learn a lot about music from my daughter, she is workimg with a 'music freak girl' and some new and unknown music is really good!

I have only seen Idlewild on stage! Front row! It was great!!!

There is so much music and I cannot count it all....

One girl I work with likes rap and I cannot understand it. Another girl likes the "Bollywood" music, which I cannot listen to for too long. The third one is in mourning over Michael Jackson and that is all she is listening to right now. My daughter Olivia was good for me because she has introduced me to some good artists! Do you know 'Collective Soul'? She gave me a GREAT CD of theirs!

You are so right about there being so much music and cannot count it...
