Program November 4, 2011

I'll be joined by a guest in the studio this week -- Chris Dalbom (aka DJ CJ) founded WRIR's punk-rock program "Gabba Gabba Hey" back in 2005, when WRIR first went on the air.  He's now Global A Go-Go's New Orleans correspondent, and he's here to fill us in on what's up, globally speaking, in the Crescent City.

Chris recently turned me on to this awesome, free-to-download mixtape which features mash-ups of bounce (NOLA's indigenous hip hop style) with Balkan music, cumbia and more:

Also this week: hunters' music from Mali, 1970s Afro-rock from across the continent, and some world/punk that I think DJ CJ will endorse.

And about the image above: that's a map that Chris created linking up the artists name-dropped in Joe Strummer's song "Global A Go-Go" (this program's namesake and theme song) with the places where they're cited as being heard.  In case you've ever been curious, the lyrics are here:
