Well I'll invoke the Mornington Crescent World Music clause for this one if I may
(in case you've forgotten it's the one where someone says "well, all music is World Music because it's in the world")

Anyone here got a decent recording of Tim Souster's World Music. My CD-R of the Radio 3 broadcast got corrupted.

Apologies Bryn, can’t help.
On Spotify he is represented by one album, Equalisation and Sonata (1992).

And so to Sicily for Milagro Acustico for a pleasant mixture of traditional singing accompanied by an almost reggae-like backbeat and some tasteful funk

Sognu comu un cunigliu - Milagro Acustico

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNmKJLXbfpA

Rosa del Sud ( Cultural bridge 2015)Testo: TradizionaleMusiche e arrangiamenti: Bob Salmierirosa BALISTRERI: vocebob SALMIERI: Ney, baglama, soprano sax, per...

Milagro Acustico[1] è un ensemble musicale fondato a Roma nel 1995 da Bob Salmieri. Caratteristica principale del gruppo, è la ricerca continua di nuove sonorità; partono infatti come formazione latin jazz, modificando il loro sound, nel corso degli anni fino ad arrivare con l'ultimo cd Rosa del Sud ad una nuova fase che coniuga la musica araba a quella latina con una spinta elettrica tipica del folk. Questo disco, vede riunita quasi al completo la formazione originaria presente le primo cd Onirico (1998). Coniugano spesso la poesia arabo-sicula con temi di attualità come l'immigrazione e il mondo dei clandestini, cercando parallelismi fra oriente e occidente di ieri e di oggi. Hanno realizzato una trilogia dedicata ai Poeti Arabi di Sicilia (Poeti Arabi di Sicilia, 2005, Siqilliah, terra d'Islam, 2007, Sicilia Araba, 2013). Dal 2005 collaborano intensamente con musicisti turchi e nel 2009 organizzano con gli Istituti Italiani di Cultura di Ankara e Istanbul il “KaleidoskopEurope project” nell'ambito del programma UE-Turchia – Civil Society Dialogue – Cultural Bridges, finanziato dalla Unione Europea. Sotto la direzione artistica di Bob Salmieri, 35 musicisti, italiani e turchi, hanno effettuato un tour nelle principali Università turche, realizzando 24 concerti e numerosi workshop. Il tour ha visto le sue date conclusive nell'aprile del 2010 al Teatro Palladium-Terza Università di Roma, nell'ambito del prestigioso Roma Europa Festival con tre giorni di concerti e workshop. Nel 2010 sono ancora invitati a Istanbul come rappresentanti dell'Italia nell'ambito del programma EU-Turkey Civil Society Dialogue: Cultural Bridges Programme alla presenza del premio Nobel Günter Grass . A giugno 2014, sono a Parigi, ospiti della Settimana della Cultura Italiana. Nel 2015 pubblicano Rosa de Sud il loro decimo album dedicato alla cantante siciliana Rosa Balistreri. (Cultural Bridge indie Label[2]) Il progetto sarà presentato all'Auditorium Parco della Musica - Sala Sinopoli il 23 aprile 2016[3]. Nello stesso anno sono invitati in Tunisia nell'ambito dei festeggiamenti per Sfax, Capitale du Monde Arabe.

Except I think they go slightly off-key towards the end, which is a shame.

So, moving quickly on, in the spirit of RanDom, it's Americana time (with a dash of Mariachi), beginning with a 3 minute spoken intro from Terry Allen + The Pedal Steal Band, shades of Johnny Dowd.
