Why 3 Episodes Dedicated to African Music?

Season 2 Episode 3
On this episode we kick off our featured 3-part series for Season Two -- this time covering music from Africa. Beginning in Senegal, we'll talk about -- and listen to -- Youssou N'Dour, Baba Maal (who is not from Wakanda), and the band Toure Kunda. A special shout-out to Peter Gabriel, who first opened the door for us in the West (well, for me, at least) to experience various African styles and artists through his work with WOMAD.
And, yes, we are aware that Africa is a continent! :-)
