Tuesday music: If you only listen to American music, you just suck

I... got nothin' today, theme-wise.  I would go with something Burmese, if I knew anything about Burmese music, but I don't.  I haven't made this blog searchable for music until relatively recently, so I can't be certain, but I don't think I have used this guy before, so, what the hell.  Here's Czech mandolinist, Radim Zenkl, joined by Joel Lindheimer on charango.  Yes, that's a real instrument.  The album is Strings & Wings, consisting of duets with a variety of musicians on different instruments.  Lots of great bluegrass players on it-- Tony Rice, Jerry Douglas, Bela Fleck, David Grisman, Mike Marshall... Radim Zenkl is good enough to attract that caliber of musician.  But, he also plays with musicians across a variety of styles around the world.  Great stuff.
