as a world music fan here's a tune that I discovered in Bolivia 50 years ago by argentine pianist and composer Ariel Ramirez, a traditional zamba...northern argentina gaucho music:

Japan has some great girl bands, AKB48, Summer Mutsume and of course the best Baby Metal, these are good, made in Japan!

Jorge Cafrune folklorista extraordinaire...assassinated by the US supported argentine military dictators in 1978 (they had to run him over with a truck, he was a big man with a big heart, simple bullets couldn't take him out)...I useta play his music 50 years ago in Bolivia when I was handy with the guitar...he does all his guitar accompanyment, excellent...

 

note the music structure of the traditional argentine zamba, very similar to american blues...

 

 

all of the south american folkloristas were suspect by the dictators, Videla, Pinochet, etc...Victor Jara in Chile was another victim...
