Program August 16, 2013

Ever heard a guy scat-sing Miles Davis in the Akan language?  (Ever been in a cockpit before?  Ever seen a grown man naked?  But I digress: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfgO90yGusI.)

Well this is your lucky week, because I'm in possession of a record by Ghana's Gyedu-Blay Ambolley (pictured above shilling for Google Plus -- don't be evil, Gyedu-Blay) on which he does just that -- it's quite surprising and fabulous.  On a related jazzy tip, you'll also hear a nice long piece from Mulatu Astatke's brand-new album and a beautiful unreleased Hotel X jam.

Also featured this week: global deep soul, mo' cumbia and some Balkan blasters to kick off your weekend -- wash 'em down with slivovitz.
