Program February 11, 2011

Dengue Fever (pictured above), everybody's favorite Cambodian-American psych-rock band, has a brand-new single and you can hear it on this week's edition of Global A Go-Go.  In fact, you can download yourself a copy right now for free, right here:

Also on this week's show, I'll play a half-hour of the music of one of the major figures in Central American Garifuna music, Aurelio Martinez of Honduras.  You'll hear a couple of tracks from his wonderful new album Laru Beya, plus material from earlier in his still-young career.

In addition, music new and old from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and a thoroughly surprising cover of "Thriller" by American bandleader Fred Ho --  sort of Michael Jackson meets Shaun Of The Dead and Reverend Billy's Church of Stop Shopping.
