By Tony SarabiaRadio M: Bollywood music, new Vieux Farka Toure, Turkish psych-folk and lots of great guitar music from around the globe.
By Tony SarabiaIt’s time for another musical romp around the globe and this week Radio M takes us to India for a swingin’ Bollywood tune from a movie about a girl who runs away from home to find freedom only to find trouble. The sounds of guitar music from Angola, Jamaica and Nigeria. Also new music from Malian guitarist Vieux Farka Touré, a nod to Russian composer Dmitri Shoshtakovich, who was born on September 25, 1906, and the latest from Norwegian singer-songwriter Farao.
Two hours of global musical bliss!
