Lusophone special, topped off with swing

I just figured out that plenty of portugese-speaking artists are produced in France, or that their songs are on Francophone compilations: Cesaria Evora, CéU, Mayra Andrade,... To draw attention to these lusophone-francophone connections, this week's show features a nearly 1-hour long special on portugese-speaking artists. The second hour starts with a generous helping of swing in the spirit of Django Reinhard, and finishes with some very danceable, traditional and then more progressive middle eastern music. Enjoy!
