Early Shakira sound

Posted by: Owen Baker on 19 April 2004

Loyd Grossman appeared on Radio 3's Private Passions last week, and chose some pretty interesting music. One track was Ojos Asi by Shakira, which has a kind of world/middle-east sound (sorry to be so vague). Anyhow, it's a cracking song that powers along, and I liked it so much I bought the album, the rest of which is....less interesting pop.
So, can anyone recommend a CD by any artist that's full of the Ojos Asi sound, rather than just the one track? Thanks.

The bAck By Dope demands appears on fila brazillias latest Another Fine Mess.

Nick this is a really good mix of stuff they like, better than Another Late Night, which I also found good.

Thanks for all the links, Nick. Top stuff. Natacha Atlas sounds good (proper 5 minute samples!) It'll be fun listening.

Cheers,
Owen
