Monday I've got Sunday on my mind

Listen: Global A Go-Go is changing its time slot.  After a year and three-quarters on Mondays at 3 PM, my next port of call will be Sundays at 1 PM.  I'm switching slots with Michael Murphy, whose fabulous program Mellow Madness will be in this time slot beginning next week.  Here's more information about Mellow Madness, it's one of my favorite WRIR programs: wrir.org/show/mellow-madness
 
I'm going to miss all my Monday peeps -- hopefully a lot of you will become my Sunday peeps!  And I'll miss the record-nerd camaraderie of Freddie J of Banji Kaicho (Mandays at 1 PM) and Garry of The Lost Music Saloon (Mondays at 5 PM).  So it goes ....
 
As for this week's program (Monday August 23, 3:00-5:00 PM on WRIR, for two weeks afterwards on the wrir.org archive player, check your local listings for airing on other radio stations, and any old time at my podcast site), we're leaving Mondays with a bang, with one of the most varied playlists I've put together in some time.  You'll hear Brazilian psychedelia, mbiras from Zimbabwe and Ethio-rock in the first hour.  The second hour all comes from the Caribbean, featuring reggae from Saint Croix and Saint Lucia, Colombian champeta with a whole lotta Congolese in it, and some soca excursions.
