World music compiled by Stan Rijven.

You would think that this would include lots of globally-oriented music. Alas, during last year’s Tour, all the greyed-out 60s and 70s hits paddled past again: from Dave and Danyel Gérard to Yves Duteil and France Gall. Yet, there is also other popular French music originating from France’s former colonies, especially from Africa. Therefore, this episode features a FrançAfrique stage.
