Comment:

Listener Status 43. Backpack tries to capture that fun vibe of backpacking someplace new and hearing all the great music on the street and just feelin it. I try to represent as much as possible, though there are no submissions from China (see "China:The Middle Kingdom)or Japan on this one, cus I was trying to keep it a little bit more upbeat. This is a good companion with my other cd "Take a Moment". I am busting mad cds out lately, trying to reach 50 in the Listener Status series by the end of August, when I am moving to Beijing for a year. Much respect to AOTMers, international. This site continues to blow my mind....

Looks really nice. That Orchestra Baobab album is sweet.(Pendantic aside: Cesaria Evora is from Cape Verde but Sergio Mendes is, indeed, from Brazil)

Thanks, Muzag, I made the change... alot of these cds are off of dubs people make for me, so I am not too clear.

yeah, i thought tracks 7 & 12 looked familiar ;)
actually, that sergio mendes track was downloaded from audiogalaxy and is most definitely mislabeled - it's clearly brazilian, but it's also clearly not sergio mendes (unless he made some major stylistic changes for one single song)...
cool mix, grandmaster d.
