23. "96 degrees in the shade." Third World (Jamaica). Reggae Greats

The guitar opening in "96 degrees in the shade" make the song sound not like reggae but like soft rock or smooth jazz. In fact, as the song progresses I was surprised that it took so long for the quintessential reggae sounds to start: including the syncopated rhythms and baseline.

24. "Dodi Li." Theodore Bikell (Israel). Folk Songs of Israel

Meaning "My beloved is mine," Dodi Li is a classic Israeli folk song that has been sung by an astonishing variety of groups including Peter, Paul, and Mary and the Milwaukee Children's Choir.

27. "Malaguena Salerosa." Rodrigo, Remedio Flores (Spain). Flamenco Caravan

Flamenco is a lovely genre of music, distinguished by a few features that are present in "Malaguena Salerosa." First, we have the deft, skillful, and amazingly technical acoustic guitar. Then we have the foot-tapping or hand-clapping as punctuated percussion. And finally, we have the lovely lyrical vocals, in this case a male vocalist.

28. "Ishar." Fairuz (Lebenon). Beirut

Pop
