Howdy Cheyenne and Sem and all!! Always here for field recordings!

I love that FMA has so many field recordings from so many parts of the world. I'm sure I'll do more field recording shows in the future.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:13pm
Yvang:

Hi Cheyenne! these tunes are so good, even better with the "field" sounds.
Avatar 3:14pm
Cheyenne:

Thanks Yvang! I love the truly 'live' feel of field recordings. It's an audible slice of life!

Howdy Cheyenne. Eastern Uganda eh? Been there (Cue stories from 'When I was a Younger Man)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:36pm
Stanley:

Senegal, too. It's really not at all difficult to come across local music in Africa. It's everywhere you go.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:38pm
Sem:

I could listen to Stanley's travel tales all day long.

Cheyenne:

I've never traveled to Africa though I once had an opportunity to do ethnomusicology in Cameroon and now regret it - but I had already signed up for a study abroad summer in China. Hopefully someday I'll make it over there.

Cheyenne:

Also I love that you can hear this musician asking for Bruce's name and then singing about him in this song!

Been busy in lab all day in the lab, and since I was handling acids, I couldn't even say hello to WoofMooland via my phone, but I've been listening. I clicky-starred this episode, thanks Cheyenne, I should probably take a lunch break (have yet to eat today, and I have leftover Korean waiting for me at home).

Go eat some lunch, northguineahills! That's what the archive is for :)

@NGH: I can post some arepas to the playlist if you like.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:49pm
Stanley:

Thanks Sem. There were lots of African musicians who improvised songs. On one occasuion I had a song about me, whilst in a Sudanese 'shabeen', along the lines of where I had come from and how I found the local girls etc. Of course, I never had the foresight to record anything or even take photos (I gave my camera away to a friend I made). But I did come back with cassettes from the markets.

Cheyenne:

Nice, sounds like you had quite a memorable time, Stanley!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:51pm
Sem:

Cassettes! Prescient of you, hope they're still close to hand, but I'm guessing maybe not?

Ken From Hyde Park:

Hi, Cheyenne and listeners far afield.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:53pm
Stanley:

Ah yes, Cheyenne. 'When I was a Younger Man'.
Sem, they're still around but my cassette player gave up the ghost some time ago. Plus many are poor recordings
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:55pm
Stanley:

These recordings are great.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:55pm
Sem:

....never "poor" recordings, but "veritapes." My own coinage, that.

Been fun today, Cheyenne. Can't wait for next week.
