Today I bought my first Don Cherry record.  I'd heard his unique trumpet playing on Robert Wyatt, Carla Bley, and other great musicians' albums, but this was the first time I took the plunge with a full LP with him as leader.  It was an impulse buy, I saw a brand new LP copy (double) at a decent price, and it cried out to me to buy it.  Very much a pan-ethnic affair, jazz is only a small part of the equation.

Here's side 3:

Boredoms are good. Didn't know Don Cherry, but enjoyed the video.

Don Cherry I don't know, but you probably know his son Eagle Eye Cherry for his one hit in the 90s, 'Save Tonight'. His daughter Neneh Cherry was a member of Rip Rig + Panic, a band that probably would appeal more to the members here, post-punk with jazz influence.

I had no idea the three were at all related. Shocked

I guess that's my musical discovery of the day, then.

Just discovered Valentin Stip (or, at least, his upcoming album). Mesmerizing stuff and, while I haven't listened to all of it, I foresee it making my top 10 for this year. Check it out:

Just discovered SORNE.
Best I can describe is a tribal/avant feel.  Layers of vocals ontop of a sparse use of found and homemade instruments.
Think I might go see them live tonight!

EDIT: here's a vid too

I didn't discover this today, but it's my most prominent discovery recently: The Nonesuch Explorer Series. Lots of great authentic folk (or "world" if you insist) musics easily available (it's all on iTunes):
