专辑简介
近幾年世界音樂已經成為，音樂分類中重要的一項，有越來越多的流行音樂創作者在作品中加入了世界音樂的元素，而在這張「翻唱全球排行名曲」專輯中，則是收錄各國優秀的藝人團體，將他們心目中最喜歡的60-90年代中經典名曲加以改編為具當地特色的歌曲，將原本大家熟悉的旋律改編成為PUTUMAYO 註冊商標的歡愉節奏。
被翻唱的對象包括路李德、雷查爾斯、菲爾柯林斯、吉米漢醉克斯、霍爾與奧茲等人的作品，經過重新的編曲後，將原來火藥味十足的搖滾樂曲變成了輕鬆愉快的世界音樂，參與這張專輯的藝人則有來自英國的戴斯瑞，德國的地平線合唱團等，可以說是陣容堅強並且創意十足的專輯。
This album offers 12 enlightening cover versions of Western pop tunes, as performed by artists from places like France, Spain, South Africa, Germany, and Mali. It's always instructive to glimpse how one culture's music is perceived by another, whether through a funhouse mirror, from under a microscope, or even face-to-face. The performances gathered here range from misguided (Albert Pla's bizarre Spanish language take on Lou Reed's "Take A Walk On The Wild Side") to hilarious (Fatal Mambo's salsa interpretation of Mungo Jerry's "In The Summertime") to a delightful breath of fresh air (Malian girl group Les Go's version of Hall & Oates' "I Can1t Go For That"). Nenes' earnest Japanese-language rendition of Bob Marley's "No Woman No Cry" is laced with plangent plucked samisens and is somehow extremely touching. Other attempts are less effective, but at least none of them come across as cynical and all are worth a listen.
