Let’s start with a great song by Tabu Ley Rochereau and L’Afrisa International. We haven’t played any of their music in a while so here’s a great one!
We’ll also have a few from members of Extra Musica and lots more.

Ambiance Congo / The Other Black Music presents:
Today we start off in honor of the late great Grand Maitre Luambo Makiadi “Franco” and his Tout Puissant OK Jazz.
October 12, 1989 was a sad day for the world when Franco passed. I was at work when I heard the news and it was like being stabbed in the heart.
So we start with three songs in his memory, one short to begin and two longer pieces, one a request from my friend Alan, maker of the famous “The Rumba Kings” film which premiered here in Richmond last month.
Then…more.
We will have new music today as well so stay tuned!

Every week we are bringing you African, Latin & Caribbean music for your Sunday evening.
Today we start with some Colombian women singers. We also have tracks from Cameroon, Haiti, and some classic rarities from Benin.
If you are at the barbeque, don’t miss the Dan Satch Opara track later in the program. It might just cook your food for you!
Nowhere else but WRIR!
