...rescued from a Taliban ambush by U.S. choppers early last week, according to the Pentagon. The U.S. hopes that Karzai will help persuade the Pashtun not to side with the Taliban against the Uzbeks, Tajiks and Hazaras. But for that to happen, Washington must rein in the worst excesses of their ethnic foes, once Northern Alliance fighters sweep into the Pashtun tribal lands...

The rhythm section has to rein in their polyrhythmic tendencies a little, but the momentum is great. At times Ozo sound, to their credit, a bit like a sublimely rejuvenated and bass-heavy Buena Vista Social Club, with lugubrious vocal lines even in the midst of relentlessly upbeat songs like “Guerrillero...
