Program February 8, 2013

With Mardi Gras right around the corner, it's time for one of Global A Go-Go's periodic visits to New Orleans.  This time you'll hear a stoned soul classic by Dr. John and something from the new Mardi Gras mixtape by Gypsyphonic Disko (pictured above).

Also this week: urban beats and vintage funk from all over the world, and a visit from Laura Ann Singh and Marlysse Simmons, whose bands (Quatro Na Bossa and Bio Ritmo, respectively) are playing at the Camel tonight.

No podcast this week -- I'd like to say it's because of technical difficulties, but it's more a case of "Homer, did you remember to bring your recorder?" "D'oh!".
