Comment:

No borders suggested this mix - sort of. He suggested the African-themed jazz part (1-7); I decided to include its closest relation, Afro-Caribbean tinged jazz (8-14). All good-time jazz, with the beat connecting the continental dots.

Yeha....I want that Dizzy Reece Mosaic Select really badly. Dollar Brand and Johnny Dyani give this the nod.
