Beguiling, engaging, alien and exotic, but lacking just a bit of light and shade I don't know enough about the genre(s) to fully appreciate it. It almost deserves a fourth star, but it didn't capture me enough - maybe even just a sunnier day here in Scotland would have tipped it into the next bracket! I certainly plan to listen to more music from outside of the UK and US - once I am free from the self-imposed restrictions of this project!
