What do you think about awards? Are they really representative of what goes on in World Music?

Warning: This show is rockier than usual! but still World Music! ;-)

It is said that listening to music produces endorphines in the human body... this week's episode is guaranteed to raise a few hairs! From New Orleans to Buenos Aires, from Haiti to Brazil via Honduras, from Reading, UK to Paris, France ending with a stop in Andalucia, the place of birth of Flamenco and Federico Garcia Lorca and a window on to Mali, this week's odyssey is better than your average podcast.. Enjoy!
