Adventures in Afropea 3: Telling Stories to the Sea
Tuesday 16 February 2010
I'm not sure I've ever listened to this before. I bought it because it had David Byrne's name on it -- it's distributed by his 'world music' label, Luka Bop -- and I like his Rei Momo album very much. So guessing this might be a bunch of sources or inspiration for that, I took a chance. But I didn't follow through and actually listen to the thing.
It's pretty good. I've no idea what they're singing about (I thought Amor De Vino was about, you know, drinking, but it turns out to be Amor Divino, which I guess is a more serious thing...) , but it's very cheery. My feet are tapping and my fingers drumming on the table.
Another lucky punt.
