Global A Go-GoGlobal A Go-Go: Friday August 15, 2014

This week on Global A Go-Go, you'll hear Afrobeat in all its varieties: a 1969 Fela Kuti classic reissued; the jazzy influences of Shaolin Afronauts, Zongo Junction and Somi; and an Afro-Latin burner by Jungle Fire (pictured above).  And they're all new releases, to boot.

Also this week: Turkish psych from the 60s, 70s and 80s; music of the maroons — escaped African slaves in the Caribbean and South America; the Berlin beat — my favorite Berlin bands that didn't play in town when I was there.
