Global A Go-GoGlobal A Go-Go: Friday October 5, 5-7 PM

Tim Maia, Brazil's Cosmic Soul Brother Number One, led a life that sounds like fiction.  Among his most outrageous exploits: turning the executives at his record label on to LSD, and joining a cult that believed humans came to Earth on flying saucers.

Tim's fabulously soulful, psychedelic, oh-so-70s music is the subject of a new retrospective by Luaka Bop Records; you'll hear two tracks from it this week on Global A Go-Go.

Also this week:  A set of desert blues from Mali, Niger and the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic; sounds of the Ethiopian azmari; some of that rock 'n' roll music, Jewish-Balkan style.
