CD Review: Putumayo Presents World Hits

Monday August 27, 2007
Putumayo has been doing a great job of introducing world music into the mainstream for many years now, with their innovative marketing methods, gorgeous CD packaging and consistently good compilations. This time, though, instead of putting together a CD that brings obscure artists into focus, they've created Putumayo World Hits, a CD that brings together several songs that did actually have some success, including Santana's "Oye Como Va" and the Gipsy Kings' "Bamboleo". Check it out for yourself: CD Review: Putumayo Presents World Hits, and check out the full track listings at Putumayo.com... what songs do you think should be included on a "greatest hits of world music"-type album?
