Femi Kuti and Positive Force are making a rare visit to our region -- they're playing on Saturday night at the 9:30 Club in Washington DC. (That's Femi above, from his performance at the Hollywood Bowl in 2009, captured by Timothy Norris for LA Weekly.) Femi's outstanding new record is called Africa For Africa, and I'll play a track from it this week by request.
I'll be playing a bunch of new favorites this week -- Geoff Berner, Ebo Taylor, Los Chicharrons, Bombino and Club d'Elf -- plus plenty of oldies as well. By the way, globalagogo.com features reviews of these releases, and many others to boot:
