Various Artists: Rough Guide to the music of North African Cafe [World Music Network]

Brilliant start with Algeria’s Akli D’s ‘Barman’ with 13 further tracks that also take us through Tunisia, Morocco and Egypt. Some great names and music with Maurice El Medioni, El Tanbura, Les Orientales and Adel Gadir Salim amongst those featured. Pick out tracks are Smadj presents S.O.S Project’s ‘Hat’ and Cheb Balowski’s ‘El Dia’. Excellent.
