Many BuzzFlash readers are enjoying CDs that we have selected from the Putumayo World Music collection. We listen to each one first, and only select the ones that we feel are of the quality and background that might interest BuzzFlash Progressive Marketplace visitors. "Women of the World: Acoustic" is one such album.

These songs of women from around the world are not only lovely to listen too, but the acoustic guitar work featured on almost of them is very good indeed.

You can listen to a sampler of the songs at the Putamayo site. If you are enchanted by the music as we are, purchase the disc from BuzzFlash and support the progressive agenda for America.

From Putumayo:

"On March 8, women all over the world celebrate International Women’s Day. A national holiday in many countries and commemorated by the United Nations, International Women's Day is the story of ordinary women as makers of history. Though often divided by national boundaries and by ethnic, linguistic, cultural, economic and political differences, this day allows women everywhere to look back on a tradition of struggle for equality, justice, peace and development. As a tribute to this tradition, Putumayo World Music presents an album that literally sings its praises. Women of the World: Acoustic is an exploration of acoustic music by some of the world’s leading female artists."
