★ 二十五張最喜愛世界音樂類年度佳片：

2017 Best World Music/ World-beat Albums
　　
　　
如果我們不得不使用“世界音樂”這個模糊的術語，那麼我們就把它用於今年的世界音樂狀況，因為就這幾年的趨勢發展，越來越多非洲音樂歌手、樂手加入歐美的流行音樂圈中，舉凡節奏藍調、爵士都有許多新人例子可見。

另一個比較普遍的現象是，跨界合作已逐漸加重比例，如Trio Da Kali 和Kronos Quartet的合作便是一例，Tony Allen逐漸朝爵士樂探索，他今年的另外一張新作《A Tribute to Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers》即是向Art Blakey致敬的專輯。

至於來自敘利亞的Omar Souleyman，巴西的Dona Onete或阿爾巴尼亞的Saz'iso都展現了不同地域傳統音樂與當代音樂的現代結合。只不過，當歌聲聽來越歡樂，卻不一定代表了歌中所描繪的就是歡愉的故事，幾乎所有的音樂會不斷地顯示出歌者的心在哪裡，他們對於故土的情感就在哪裡。不論是緩慢而疲倦的哀嘆，撫慰流亡痛苦的吟唱，多年以來許多非洲、中亞國家因政治被迫離家的故事情事，其實都寫在這些記錄他們人民苦難的歌聲裡。

拜今年的Clockenflap音樂節所賜，有幸看到Tinariwen和Ibibio Sound Machine的現場，已是相當滿足。
