    All Music Guide Review

    Gathering choice tracks from Peter Gabriel's Real World recording weeks of 1991 and 1992, it focuses less on collaborative efforts than Arcane. There are hits and misses among the 16 tracks, all of a subjective nature depending on the listener's perspective. The disc plays it safe from a Western perspective on several tracks - Van Morrison's joint venture with The Holmes Brothers falls into this category, as does the conventional soul/R&B of Carole Rawley, Simon Emmerson and Raw Stylus. Peak moments come from Laplander Mari Boine's astounding circular breathing, traditional joik song style, Ashkhabad's soundtrack to some Middle Eastern desert convoy, and the heavily percussive Toto La Momposina Y Sus Tambores. ~ Roch Parisien, All Music Guide
