In support of all the good music being made in the world and all the musicians working hard with little financial support and payoff for doing what they love. i am adding a section to the blog to highlight some of the music i am currently listening to. I didn't feel as strongly in Ouaga, because we were surrounded by a lot of W African music. but here it is all techno, electronic, overly engineered crap. it all sounds the same. every station play the same songs...and EVERYONE listens to it. even the older people. i think it will taint the memory of my time here. so i am making an effort to fill my brain with music worth listening to. please feel free to send me recommendations you might have for me. granted, i am from the PNW and KEXP is the holy grail, but i am open to most music.
you probably won't hear most of this music on the radio, but take a chance, buy or download one of these fine albums and support a talented musician.
