@Viridian- that you know Moondog is pretty cool. I saw him in the ’60s in Manhattan- I was still pretty young, but thought, this guy is strange.
On the subject, I suspect the OP is purposely vague, apart from saying "other worldly"--which I take to mean other cultural influences, like Eastern, Indian, Caribbean--not "world music" exactly, or maybe the jazz aspects of "world music."
I know we tend to label and characterize stuff to fit it into some category.
I’ll thrown down one I mentioned in the earlier thread: Cochemea Gastelum- All My Relations. I think it qualifies as "other worldly" both in the spiritual sense-and the "other culture" sense- Native American chanting, percussion and some wicked horn playing through a wah-wah.
20 bucks on vinyl, excluding shipping.
I can’t even remember how I got onto it. I’ve heard him play, backing Sharon Jones.
But, like a lot of things, one "surfs" a topic and finds things of interest. This was one such record.
