Our German car, the Korean TV, the Bolivian coffee beans and our fruit and vegetables preferably locally. The ice cream comes from Italy, and the Swedish seat is next to the Mechelen cupboard. Everything belongs together, indivisible and unique. Everything is one. Accordionist Gwen Cresens, for example, collects his material eclectically. In music, as he approaches them, globalization is a starting point. A condition.

Sweet beautiful soul from one of the all-time greats, "Let's Straighten It Out" features Gwen in a more mellow soul vein-copping a sweet bit of funky keyboard work from Latimore, whose great track she redoes as the title cut. Other cuts include "Cradle Of Love", "Your Love Is Worse Than A Cold Love", and "Early Morning Love". Even better is the great album "Melody Of Life". The album has more of a modern soul sound than her other albums for the label, thanks to some sweet mellow production work by Betty Wright. The cuts are great, with a stone-cold mellow groovin' sound that shows that Gwen was still working on her style, changing it and expanding it past the fame of her big mid-70s recordings. Titles include "All This Love I'm Givin", "I Can Only Think Of You", "I Found A Love", "The Melody Of Life", and "The Joy".
