Program June 4, 2010

You're looking at Zakumi, mascot for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. The eyes of the world will be on South Africa starting next week, so let's turn your ears there today.

I'll be playing nothing but music from South Africa -- a capella singing, kwela, mbaqanga, township jive, modern jazz, kwaito -- you'll hear all of these and more on today's very special edition of Global A Go-Go. Oh yes, and go Bafana Bafana.  Click "Read More" for the tracklist.  Podcast is here:
