Ryukyu Rare Groove Revisited gathers Okinawan pop recordings that fold local melodies and language into bossa, beat, groove and postwar pop arrangements. The result is a beautifully sequenced compilation that feels both regionally rooted and wide open, with the Yara Families, Shoukichi Kina and others carrying the set across two strong sides.
