I read through this article thinking, "talk about stating the obvious." But then I remembered that most people from the West have not been exposed to non-western (not COUNTRY) music. It is an interesting look at how our perceptions are shaped by our experiences.

Oh Yeah. Try sitting off Iran and listening to their entire RF Spectrum. I like Persian Music Now.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel Oh totally agree. For me it was Morlam from Thailand. My neighbor listens to it during the day. Now I actually enjoy listening to it. I am still trying to figure out how the accordion, of all things, became a popular Morlam instrument!
