Global A Go-Go presents:
Budos rising
The Budos Band has been a Global A Go-Go staple from the beginning — their first album came out in 2005, the same year WRIR went on the air. Their new album, Long In The Tooth, is a return to their original sound, their best in 10 years. Hear for yourself as I play a track from the new album along with ones from their first four releases.
Also this week (Monday November 2, 3:00-5:00 PM on WRIR, for two weeks afterwards at wrir.org/listen, check your local listings for airing on other radio stations, and any old time at my podcast site): European folk-rock appropriate for the spoopy season, four from Madagascar, Colombia’s crazy pre-champeta sounds, Afrobeat from behind the former Iron Curtain, and Made Kuti’s debut plus what his father and grandfather sounded like at the same age.
