Alarm bells ring when I see the garish mishmash of surrealist trash on the cover of the No Zu album. On paper, global-music genre-hopping that incorporates no-wave pop and tribal funk is a little worrisome, too – you’d have thought there was nothing more to be gained by filling a stage with multi-instrumentalists chanting in unison while banging on steel drums and cowbells.

  Relishing the chance to circumvent cleaning her untidy apartment upon answering my call, it is hard to believe singer/songwriter Erika M.

When it was published in Japan in 1987, Norwegian Wood ignited a popular frenzy that propelled author Haruki Murakami into international fame.

Since 1987, Norwegian... Read More
