Here's a recording from the BBC Radio3 Awards for World Music 2006 Concert, it was held at 2006.Apr.07 at the Brixton Academy, London and broadcasted 2006.Apr.10 on BBC Radio3. A little later it has been on television on BBC FOUR and this recording is from a broadcast on BBC World Service. The broadcast was an 1 hour edit of the concert and taped on K7 from FM radio (so, outside the UK, should be better than from internet stream).
It's a wirlwind of musical styles, performed for a very enthousiastic crowd, the show was presented by South African trumpeter Hugh Masekela, the audio has been cutted into individual tracks (some with relevant intro), interviews and voice-overs from the World Service.
