When The Weather Is Hot
in the summertime, when the weather is hot, my ears always turn toward Africa. this mix contains music from Zambia, South Africa, Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Mali, Madagascar, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Congo and Benin. to be listened to on those oh-so hot days when all you can do lie down and drift off to a far away land where folks with guitars make beautiful music.
