Anyone browsing the bargain bins at the used CD shop might be glad they picked up this 1995 compilation of four mid seventies albums by the British duo recording as Jade Warrior. While the rest of the UK was diving headfirst into punk rock these multi-instrumentalist ethno-musicologists were combining various aspects of jazz, Latin, Asian, African, proto-ambient and percussion of the entire pacific rim to create truly colorful sub-tropical music.

I believe you will be pleasantly surprised how well it blends with any music mix incorporating vintage as well as contemporary exotica and jazz.
