MAK's most recent show

[Globaltruth]

Lest it slip your notice Mary Ann put in a fine shift on Friday; she hit the ground running with a bit of Brittany meets Addis. Really recommend that you don't miss Cahalen Morrison & Eli West doing 'Lost Lovin Gal' - excellent. Guests were very entertaining though the chat went on a bit too long - buncha Scots thigither cannae stop bletherin'.

Ethno in Transit 'Ej Lasko' caught me off-guard - I had already consigned it to the 'I don't like this' file when I found myself captivated. The African 78s were great especially 'Guelabiessi'.....and MA played a track from the forthcoming World Routes on the road CD out in the New Year which sounded great.

eek, the way this week's shaping up I'm not sure I'll get to listen to this. JC, could you listen to it again for me?

[Paul Sherratt]

GT,
Can't you record it on one of your snazzy hardy-discs ? The 78's were grand - I can see some future expenditure there and the 2012 World Routes release could be a late/early cracker.
If my shot at translating is anywhere near the mark then I agree ( with a ) with JC about all that gas.

Just take in the first four tracks Global - they'll keep you going meantime.....and that's a couple of weeks she's played the 78s Paul and could well be a smart buy.

Much more about the dusty treasure trove here : http://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/41914 (where else ... )
Btw, wonder if that dusty delight I rescued from a tax haven isle a few years back will be finally getting a late night shaking in the next couple
of weeks ?

Thanks John.
Btw that future expenditure is now in the past !

I always suspected this - it's you running the Eurozone. Can you make World Music compulsory in schools, colleges, and workplaces plse?

Shouldn't it be past expenditure is in the future though? I'm sure you'll just print some more...

GT tops leaderboard with treble entries, and is rather chuffed for the first time in ages to have the time to do so. Retires for tea and parkin with Mrs GT.And a spot of deep listening

Wo3 was unusually jazzy last night..

I dunno, displace one minority for another - who schedules this?
Anyone? I suspect not...1 show a week...

GT,

I was going to listen to bit before setting off to work. But I can't immediately see it anywhere.
Could you whistle or hum some of the items ?

And even more luckily this is a great playlist, not just my opinion, a bunch of other people enjoyed it this morning - does anyone have any newer ones to share? We should maybe consider doing some more solo efforts....

Now that's what I call <insert your own description > * music !

'bout time there was another mind you - makes the Max allowance seem overwhelming.

I dig the modesty - can we exceed a modest allowance
Of playlists.

(blaming Max though for dedicating my afternoon to the works of that well known WM artist Jimmy Scott - terrible when you start to forget...)

[Paul Sherratt]

I was going to see Jimmy Scott in London then it was cancelled then rearranged and then I saw just where he'd be playing.



But it could be so bad that it's good ?

Emir Kusturica and the No Smoking Orchestra may have had some good bits but I didn't hear them - after the first couple tracks I fast forwarded, heard a bit of the chat, FFd again to a song about a pitbull, fast forwarded to the last track with a not funny introduction to the band and almost missed the whole of the first track out of there in my haste to hit the FF - it was pretty awful and comprised about two-fifths of the show - I mean it might have been a laugh being there but it weren't for me listening on LA. Otherwise it was a very sombre affair - with a very fine Jackie leven track in there and I liked the Andrew Cronshaw (again). There's a funny wee Lebanese song in there (The Incompetents - reminded me of Eels a bit)) and a good bitta gamelan early on - I'm off to follow GT's direction to Afrobeat to cheer myself up.
