Description
In his final monthly show of 2020, Glyn plays tracks from his Album Of The Month, Kiriki Club (by Kiriki Club) - with tracks in English, Welsh and Portuguese - and also looks at an album of songs sung in Anglo-Saxon and another sung in Latin!
Besides that there's sumptuous Catalan acoustic-folk-pop, 1980s pachanga, Native American funk and mellow Malian vibes, protest and consciousness-raising releases (from Israel, Turkey & Finland) celebrating women worldwide, and decrying the destruction of native wildernesses and indigenous homelands in Northern Europe - and also fascinating examples of global, minimalist-inspired music from Spain, Thailand and the USA.
There's also great music from Canada, and Brazil, two albums from an Argentine pianist who works at the borders of folklore and jazz, a multi-national outfit from Barcelona playing a Cape Verdean coladeira, New Orleans mambo and much more!
