Program June 24, 2011

In music, everything old is eventually new again.  And right about now, nothing seems newer than boogaloo, the Latin/soul hybrid that burned up dance floors in the late 60's.  This week, you'll hear tracks from two current bands who know how to do the shingaling: Ray Lugo (pictured above) & The Boogaloo Destroyers, and Spanglish Fly featuring long-time Bio Ritmo conguero Gabo Tomasini.

Also this week: reggae from Jamaica, South Africa and Senegal; Balkan beats at two tempos -- fast and faster; and sublime dance music from Central Africa.  Click "Read More" for today's tracklist; click here for a podcast of today's program:
