Great artist, great music, shame about the record company
This is a fantastic album and highly recommended. I have deducted 2 stars from my review because of the record company. Tinder is an Independent world music label. Their motto is "a world without boundaries", yet they have put up boundaries of their own. I have had dealings with all the big World Music labels. Usually the smaller independent labels will bend over backwards to obtain sales promotion and marketing for their product & artists, but not in Tinder's case. Tinder started life as a small independent label and has quickly grown to have an office in San Fransisco. For the French born owner Sandrine Direnzo, the beginning was difficult and he encountered many obstacles and frustrations. Unfortunately it appears he has forgotten this and recent success has gone to his head. An example of this was a recent sales inquiry I made regarding purchasing CD's and offering National exposure & promotional opportunities for their extensive artist's roster in Australia. Normally most record companies would be happy to receive such a request, but not in the case of Tinder. Instead of receiving a simple thank you from them, they made it clear they weren't interested. Moreover they treated my sales inquiry with disdain and downright rudeness. Despite this I was determined to feature, Tinder's music on my radio show, so I went to their web site to order some items. There, I discovered the order section and music downloads don't work! I feel sorry for the brilliant artists that are with Tinder. I'm sure they would be better served, marketed and promoted elsewhere. So my advice is try and track down this brilliant music from friendlier sources elsewhere such as Amazon, and don't have any dealings with this record company.

THIS IS A MUST HAVE CD!
I had a hard time finding this one!! If you have ever been to a Carlos Santana show in recent years, you have heard this album being played in-between band setups. This is a KILLER CD!! I recommend this to any and all the people in Cyberspace because it is some of the funkiest music from France to come out in a while....

I personally like the cuts, "Diolof Man, Lou Tax, Yakar, and Guenth" My personal picks from this CD... If you are thinking about buying it, please pick it up, You won't regret it..
