In a heatwave here in Boston – sounds like a good time to visit some more countries with tropical sounds, then end our journey in Africa, first tapping traditional sounds of Sudan, Mali and Kenya, then traveling to Zambia and the genre I love most from Africa, Zamrock.

Swaying through the reeds on a hot Summer day. Paddling though the mangroves, today you have your accompaniment on Gulls Window Circus. An all-vinyl tropical, Brazilian, Jamaican show that made the heat outside fun and made me wonder why I seldom tread in these genre waters. Even includes a song from a play in Philadelphia (Magic Of Love). The Black Harmony track has been slipping in and out of my head all week, and the As Damas Do Rap track must be heard.
