1	Firehouse (1991) more music like this by Firehouse Firehouse's self-titled debut was a slick, polished collection of pop-metal. While louder numbers like "Don't Treat Me Bad" sounded good on the radio, the true strength of the record was the group's knack for power ballads like the Top 10 hit "Love of a Lifetime." Firehouse had trouble coming up with a consistent set of high-quality material ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $5.11!
2	Antologia (2000) more music like this by Madredeus If there is a truth about music, somewhere in between the beauty of the atmospheres created and the senses' exhilaration, it can surely be found on Madredeus' compositions. This Portuguese group has been growing a worldwide fan base, from Europe to Japan, since its formation in the late '80s, largely due to its natural genius for producing ... see all copies from $12.19! new only from $12.19!
3	Ulisses (2005) more music like this by Cristina Branco First-time listeners to this Portuguese chanteuse may become so instantly infatuated with her beautiful, expressive voice and the plucky native guitar of Custódio Castelo that they may not truly care about the fado music traditions the two are carrying on via this enchanting collection. One could simply enjoy the impressionistic English ... see all copies from $9.58! new only from $15.11!
4	Matriarch: Iroquois Women's Songs (1996) more music like this by Joanne Shenandoah Joanne Shenandoah's voice is silvery smooth, golden rich, and milky warm. According to Shenandoah, woman of the Iroquois served as spiritual advisors, political counselors, and healers -- placed in positions to temper the aggressive nature of the males. Matriarch is dedicated to members of Shenandoah's clan -- sisters, aunts, grandmothers -- and ... see all copies from $14.95! new only from $14.95!
5	The Art of Virtue (2005) more music like this by Adrienne Young & Little Sadie see all copies from $10.99! new only from $14.95!
6	Summer Solstice, Vol. 2 (1998) more music like this by Various Artists This pleasant sampler is perfect for lovers of new age worldbeat. While things threaten to get lively with the inclusion of a track by Buckwheat Zydeco, the mellow vibe prevails. In the end, it's a decent disc for that relaxed patio party you've been planning. Tim Sheridan, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.35! new only from $5.00!
7	Voices of Life (2000) more music like this by Bulgarian Womens Choir The West became aware of the wonderful Bulgarian female choirs through La Mystere des Voix Bulgaires. This is, perhaps, the next step. Produced by former Roxy Music keyboard player Eddie Jobson, this explores the unique harmonies and overtone singing of the voices. In many ways, the singers represent the crossroads between West and East and ... see all copies from $6.48! new only from $22.19!
8	Celtic Treasure: The Legacy of Turlough O'Carolan (1996) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $14.78! new only from $14.78!
9	Stars to Share (1999) more music like this by Samite Landing on the Windham Hill label, Samite (having dropped the "Of Uganda" from his name several years back) offers a collection of songs inspired by his return to the African continent after approximately a decade of residence in the U.S. as a political refugee. The music is largely in keeping with his introspective folk style, but this time, ... see all copies from $2.95!
10	Room to Grow (2007) more music like this by Adrienne Young On her third album, Adrienne Young continues yet also expands on her earlier efforts. Although the Florida-born, Nashville-based performer maintains a rustic Americana feel from her first two discs, she has also polished up her sound. It is apparent from the rousing leadoff track "All for Good," a full-bodied, lightly twangy pop tune that would ... see all copies from $11.35! new only from $11.35!
11 view cover	Otherworld (1999) more music like this by Lúnasa Lúnasa treads a fine line between the strictly traditional approach to Irish music taken by bands like Altan or Cherish the Ladies and the somewhat more progressive approach used by groups like Solas and Déanta. Although the group's instrumental lineup (flute, fiddle, guitar, and bass) is pretty well within the bounds of tradition, their approach ... see all copies from $15.28! new only from $15.28!
12 view cover	Esprit (2000) more music like this by Quartango A delightful group from Canada consisting of violinist Stephane Allard, Denis Plante on bandoneon, pianist Richard Hunt, and bassist Rene Gosselin, Quartango performs colorful and adventurous versions of tangos. They play traditional melodies, more recent originals, and a couple offbeat pieces (including Dave Brubeck's "Blue Rondo à la Turk"). A ... see all copies from $14.27!
13 view cover	Tunula Eno (2003) more music like this by Samite Samite's Tunula Eno is a musical memoir about the last year of the Ugandan singer/songwriter's wife's life. Unlike many similar records -- the Eels' Electro-Shock Blues, about the deaths of singer/songwriter E's mother and sister, comes immediately to mind -- Tunula Eno is not a difficult, depressing listen. Of course, this may well have much to ... see all copies from $12.88! new only from $12.88!
14 view cover	Paixoes Diagonais (1999) more music like this by Mísia Portuguese singer Misia's fifth album (though only her second American release) moves away from the traditional fado of her earlier albums into a more electric and varied sound. Usually this is a really bad sign that means the artist is trying to break the U.S. pop market through a watered-down, Americanized version of what had made them ... see all copies from $5.52! new only from $8.55!
15 view cover	Dance My Children, Dance (1988) more music like this by Samite of Uganda Amazingly diverse, the broad spectrum of musical styles heard on the African continent range from happy and upbeat to moody to tranquil. Ugandan singer Samite definitely favors tranquility on his very haunting and hypnotic Dance My Children Dance. In addition to providing all of the album's vocals, Samite plays most of its instruments -- including ... see all copies from $6.42! new only from $19.19!
16 view cover	Loving Ways (1994) more music like this by Joanne Shenandoah & A. Paul Ortega see all copies from $10.23!
17 view cover	Tribal Dreams: Music From Native Americans (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Tribal Dreams is a compilation of Native American songs based on traditional melodies, lyrics, and instrumentation. Percussion, drums, and flutes are the main instruments used, with some non-native additions such as electric pianos and guitars. The overall sound and mood are slow, solemn, and soothing -- almost a bit too soothing. Much of this ... see all copies from $5.94! new only from $6.12!
18 view cover	Pearl of Africa Reborn (1992) more music like this by Samite of Uganda Fuller instrumentation and punchier production than his first release help embed firmly in memory these bright pop songs derived from Ugandan stories. Musicians from Senegal, the United States and Barbados join the avuncular Samite in a loving tribute to his mother that's perfect for families everywhere. Bob Tarte, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.54! new only from $12.70!
19 view cover	Joanne Shenandoah (1989) more music like this by Joanne Shenandoah see all copies from $6.29! new only from $11.31!
20 view cover	Kambu Angels (2001) more music like this by Samite Ugandan vocalist Samite coos and chants his way through ten warmly charming songs on Kambu Angels. Accompanied by kalimba (finger piano), sparse percussion, and layer upon layer of his own voice, Samite evokes traditional African folk music in a soothing and embracing manner. While his previous albums have had a fuller sound, this gentle intimacy ... see all copies from $10.36! new only from $12.66!
21 view cover	Onda (2006) more music like this by Fiamma Fumana On their third outing, Fiamma Fumana are still mixing the ancient and very modern in their own particular fashion, but there's a definite change. The balance has tipped toward original compositions, perhaps because this particular lineup has put in extensive roadwork and gelled into a really solid unit. There are a number of guests (like Lorenzo ... see all copies from $10.76! new only from $10.76!
22 view cover	Songs of the Spirit (1996) more music like this by Various Artists A very nice collection of music by Native American performers, with styles that range from somewhere close to ambient to just a hair short of serious folk-rock. Little Wolf has a good showing with two tracks (including the somewhat overexposed "Coyote Dance"), but there really isn't a dud anywhere in this album. A nice introduction to several ... see all copies from $1.99!
23 view cover	Silina Musango (1996) more music like this by Samite see all copies from $6.72! new only from $53.49!
24 view cover	Rough Guide to Native American Music (1998) more music like this by Various Artists After providing Rough Guides for everything from reggae, salsa and flamenco to the music of South Africa, Eastern Europe and Brazil, the World Music Network's excellent Rough Guide series turned its attention to Native American music with this 18-song CD. Assembled in 1998, The Rough Guide to Native American Music isn't meant to be the last ... see all copies from $13.16! new only from $13.16!
25 view cover	World 2004 (2004) more music like this by Various Artists World music in America is tainted by Starbucks. The term itself is farcical, 'world music'. But as it's become a staple of record store racks in the last decade or so, it's been codified as lifestyle sounds for people who wear linen tunics, self-described (or perhaps self-important) liberal thinkers who speak ebulliently in air quotes about a ... see all copies from $16.15! new only from $16.15!
