Artist	Track	Comments
Big Guitars from Texas	Ride of the Ruthless
Cedric Im Brooks	Lambs Bread Collie	Cedric Brooks has been playing sax in Jamaica and around for years; he joined the Skatalites after Roland Alphonso died. The band on his new solo album, on Honest Jons, is Cedric Im Brooks & the Light of Saba (2003)
Jackie Mittoo	Dr. Ring Ding	From "Last Train to Skaville" on Soul Jazz Records (2003)
Cedric Im Brooks	Sound
The Skatalites	Guns of Navarone	From "Hi Bop Ska"-- their amazing 30th Anniversary Album-- with Monty Alexander, Lester Bowie, David Murray, Toots Hibbert, Prince Buster and others helping out
Akoya Afrobeat	Je Je L'Aiye	Featuring Cedric Brooks as a guest on this tune; they played live on Rob's show a few weeks ago. The band includes-- as they say on their website-- "members from Panama, Ghana, Benin, South Africa, Japan and the US, this 13-piece ensemble embraces unity and positive vibrations." Find out more at akoyamusic.com
Fiji	Indigenous Life	Jawaiian music from the South Pacific; Fiji is George Veikoso
Cyril Pahinui	Hawaiian Cowboy	The original is copyright 1936 although you can see Sol K Bright do it on YouTube from 1986! Cyril does this at a faster tempo in his duet album with Bob Brozman but this laid back instrumental version is so sharp.
Brudda Iz (Israel Kamakawiwo'ole)	Panini Pua Kea	Aside from his sweet voice and ukelele band, Brudda Iz was also a Hawaiian nationalist-- speaking and singing for the rights of the native peoples of the South Pacific and standing up to the colonialists. Yeh, the USA!
A.P. Sharpe his Honolulu Hawaiians	Ukelele Lady	From "Steeling Round the World: Hawaiian Style" (Harlequin, 2203)-- as Hawaiian steel guitar. I know this song from a cover by Jim Kweskin Jug Band
Professor Longhair	Mardi Gras in New Orleans	Guitar by Snooks Eaglin, who died this week. RIP/Laissez Le Bon Ton Roulez!
Snooks Eaglin	Fly Right Baby	From "Country Boy in New Orleans" on Arhoolie, recorded in 1955 & released on CD in 1991
The Dirty Dozen Brass Band w/ Dr. John	It's All Over Now	Vinyl allows me to play the wrong speed if I want! From 1987 "Voodoo" album on CBS Records
Wild Magnolias	Ho Na Nae	That's Snooks again, playing a mean guitar
Robert Munro	Brisas Del Zulia	Acoustic music from Trinidad carnival
Rude Girls	Kaka Lala	More Trinidad, from Carnival 95. Follow the instructions!
Joanna	Diga Ai	Brazil
Mario Vickram Sen & Tiffany Sen	Clear As A Bell	Find out more about "Gypsychology" at innergypsy.com
Taraf de Haidouks	Cacuria Dances	Authentic Gypsy music, on Nonesuch: "Band of Gypsies" (2001)
War	Lowrider	Yes, this is the theme music to the George Lopez show. Chicano music from the boys who gave us "Cisco Kid" and more.
Los Madrugadores	La Parranda	Corrido about carousing
Joe Cuba	Quinto Sabroso	Born Jose Calderon in Spanish Harlem, Joe Cuba was the Boogaloo King for decades. Fania just reissued this album. Bang Bang.
Joe Cuba	Joe Cuba's Latin Hustle	How about one more?! The guy just died; it's the least we can do. Try & stand still.
Cachao	Camina Juan Pescao	Soulful classical jazz bass from one of the best. Check out "La Leyenda" on Universal, 2008.
Cachaito	A Gozar El Tumbao
Cachaito	Cachaito in Laboratory
Los Zafiros	Un Nombre de Mujer	Cuban do-wop from the 1960, with Cachaito on bass & Manuel Galban on guitar; from "Bossa Cubana" on Nonesuch (1999)
Manuel Guajiro Mirabal	Dombe Dombe	Ruben Gonzalez on piano, Cchaito on bass & Guajiro on trumpet
Afro-Cuban All Stars	Fiesta de la Rumba	This is from their "A Toda Cuba" le Gusta" CD on World Circuit (1997)
Master Musicians of Jajouka with Bachir Attar	If the Moon Loves You
Otha Turner the Afrossippi Allstars	Bounce Ball	The is fife & drum music from north Mississippi-- with an amazingly African flavor that we all thought was lost in the new world.
John Sinclair & His Blues Scholars	Some Other Blues/Like Sonny/The Drum Thing	A segment from "Full Moon Light"-- recorded live in New Orleans, 9/20/04. Dig those horns.
Henry Butler	Tee-Nah-Nah	Okay, a little more mardi gras! As cool as this number is, it doesn't do justice to Henry Butler, a fine New Orleans jazz/blues piano player
Beau Joque and the Zydeco Hi-Rollers	Damballah	Rockin' zydeco for y'all
Thai Elephant Orchestra	Phong's Solo	An amazing feat, produced by Dave Solider & Richard Lair. Working with skeptical Thaii mahouts (trainers) they taught these intelligent rhythmic animals to play! And this is volume 2, on Mulatta Records.
Thai Elephant Orchestra	Floating Down the Pin River	Sorry that I ran out of time. Isn't this great stuff?!
