Anyone know where Miss Smodern hails from? This cut was taken off a popular pan-African album of the 70s

Thanks, Gary! I'd be interested to know how it all works, what the boundaries are, etc.

yo Gary! Way stoked for today's show, I luuurvs African music. Never heard of Miss Smodern before, but this track is pure South African mbaqanga.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:17pm

Mr. Fab! That sounds plausible, yeah -- if I had been forced to guess, I would've probably gone with SA

Yup, South Africa.

Pearl says she has put in a call to the local SPCA for animal cruelty/dachshund abuse because of having to pose for two hours as Shirley Temple Black and Tan! Congratulations to Munro! But Pearl thinks she is cuter!!!

Where do you find these places, Gary?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:54pm

@Dave, that place I didn't find, I was actually led to by a guy who saw me waiting sadly outside of Nahomi. He asked if I was looking for Ethiopian music. I said I was. And he said to follow him across the street ...

I missed most of those African Pearls recs on Reneshoua. There was so much good stuff on that blog last time around I gave short shrift to the Africa and funk records. But hell, I'm still trying to get through everything else I got there and they've been gone for months.

heh, that is me exactly with Reneshoua. I was grabbing so much old timey American and blues stuff and anything they'd put up that came out between 1900-1950 that I just couldn't face all of the funk and African and Jamaican stuff.

The first and last book on Fela you need to reat is Carlos Moore's "Fela Fela This Bitch of a Life." I have a copy published by Allison & Busby, London. Here's a review on JSTOR: www.jstor.org...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:13pm
Gary:

THANK YOU, Doug! Will get right on that after the show
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:18pm
Doug Schulkind:

@Gary
That book was actually published before Fela died, so it's not a sweeping epic bio. It's more an "as told to" insider account of the life and times. Carlos Moore was a close confidant of Fela's.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:19pm
Gary:

That sounds thrilling, though -- maybe more so than an after-the-fact overview
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:20pm
Doug Schulkind:

The original publication was in French and carried the title Fela, Fela — Cette Putain De Vie (Fela, Fela — This Motherfucking Life)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:23pm
Doug Schulkind:

HOLY CRAP! Bodega Pop Live is just 33¢ short of the goal. And because of that, it's showing as 99%. HOLY CRAP!

The witheringly intelligent DAN IN PROVIDENCE has brought us all to the brink. THANKS Dan! Now who will push Gary over the top?!?!

Anonymous Party, THANK YOU SO MUCH!

@anonymous party
Because the official amount required to hit 100% was $33.33. The pledge widget thingy only shows round numbers. Sorry for the confusion.
