In August 2020's show, Glyn flags up his Album of the Month, Barquitos de Papel by Martín Alvarado & Juan Miguel Expósito, which highlights the compositional skills of tango legends Homero & Virgilio Expósito.
There's also some cracking re-issues of latin tropical music from the 60s and 70s on the Vampisoul label by Colombia's Jimmy Salcedo, Juan Piña, Los Picapiedra and Brazil's Sebastião Tapajos & Pedro dos Santos as well as re-issued classic 80s bhangra from Awaaz and a brand new offering from KS Bhamrah of Apna Sangeet for Rakhri!
