Beaux dimanches

It's always a beautiful Sunday here on the radio at WRIR, what with programs like The Motherland Influence, Ambiance Congo, The Other Black Music, If Music Could Talk, Bebop & Beyond with Mr. Jazz, Club Unity and more, along with Global A Go-Go of course.
 
And none more beautiful than this Sunday (October 6, 1:00-3:00 PM on WRIR, for two weeks afterwards at wrir.org/listen, check your local listings for airing on other radio stations, and any old time at my podcast site) as we're featuring the new albums from both Manu Chao and Amadou & Mariam.
 
We're highlighting lots of new fall releases this week, including new Brazilian sounds from Saulo Duarte and MOMO.; new reggae by Taj Weekes & Zion Albert, Vincent Price & The Young Spirits (Halloween alert!), Pasnbesa and Big Boss Sound; the Turkish stylings of Aylin's Soulgarden and Altın Gün; and the Ethio-jazz of Mulatu Astatke & Hoodna Orchestra.
 
Plus I'll be giving away a pair of tickets for the October 12 Broadberry show of Cimafunk, Cuba's answer to Prince or George Clinton, so tune in to win, and to enjoy another beautiful Sunday on WRIR!
