Hey Guys,
An Italian friend of mine turned me on to Zucchero a couple of years ago. He has an amazing voice and has a unique style that mixes blues, rock and jazz. He's been around for a long time and he just released a new "best of" album.I found some links for his songs on the web, check them out. Let me know what you think...

By definition, any music from outside of your country must be "international" so I guess we're all (unless extremely narrow in our tastes) fans of international music.

Over here we call the genre "World Music" i.e. Music from around the world. The radio show I hear some on focuses mainly on Africa (e.g. Tinariwen etc), Europe (but not necessarily UK - e.g. Ojos de Brujo) and the Americas. There is some crossover (e.g. Salsa Celtica) but these aren't classified any differently.
