Program January 28, 2011

Here in Virginia, George (Macaca) Allen announced this week that he'll try to reclaim a U.S. Senate seat in 2012.  Separately, Femi Kuti has a brand-new song where he says "nobody begged you to be senator."  I couldn't resist the obvious -- a George Allen - Femi Kuti mash-up, mixed live for you this week on Global A Go-Go.

Also in the way of new music, you'll hear a band from Brooklyn called the Gowanus Reggae And Ska Society (yes, that acronym is GRASS), Afrobeat from Portugal (Terrakota) and England (Ariya Astrobeat Arkestra), and the latest single from the clever French cover band Nouvelle Vague.
