Listening to this now, loving it so far. From what I've read, all the music was recorded back in the early 90's, I don't know why it's taken so long to release, but it's a compilation of World music. Different singers, cultures, instruments, all tied together by Gabriel. Only on the 4th song, but it's been fun to hear such an eclectic mix.
It's interesting to listen to songs that you have no idea what they are saying. At that point, the human voice is truly an instrument. The song I'm listening to now has to include one of the Deep Forest folks. The language is so bizarre to the english ear, that it can come across only as rythym and tone. Pretty cool.
