The Haberdasher Presents Putumayo on Cause and Effect
Hey Listeners,
Who is Dan Storper and why should we care? Dan passed away on May 22nd in his adopted hometown of New Orleans. He founded the Putumayo World Music label in 1993. Dan is important to any and everyone who loves music and especially those with a curiosity about “other”, and adventurous spirit, folks open to new music, folks that like to travel, folks that realize the world is bigger than the 23220 zip code, bigger than Richmond, bigger than Virginia, bigger than the US – it’s a global thing. Music isn’t just classic rock and oldies or indie rock – or even reggae. It’s bigger and Dan helped teach us that. Dan is important to the WRIR listener – like you – and so many others that don’t have WRIR in their backyard.
Dan the Man
Dan was an important guy and while he didn’t invent world music, he championed it and made it accessible to listeners. He put it out there before you could go on the Internet and order music from all over the globe. He put it out there before you could stream music wherever you have a connection. Today let’s celebrate Dan and his legacy on Cause and Effect.
