Andre Alexis plays music by Miriam Makeba, Bob Wills, and Dinah Washington on Skylarkin'. Andre also spouts a little poetry, discovers an unlikely track - Johnny Cash singing in German - and describes a General Store unlike any other.
this is just fantastic

OnStage from Glenn Gould Studio in Toronto, a concert from the World series
"Fado! Portuguese Blues"
Catarina Cardeal, vocalist
Mike Siracusa, guitar
Jane Bunnett, saxophone
Spirits of Havana
She has been described as "
a smokey and sultry Portuguese fado songstress." The sensational, emerging vocalist Catarina Cardeal breathes powerful, new life into the fado tradition - Portugal's answer to the blues. ln the fado/blues ensemble known as "15," Catarina Cardeal and Mike Siracusa are pushing the definition of Portugese Fado to new areas that touches the universal exploration of blues - passionate Portugese song, with a contemporary twist! They're joined by their collaborator from two Global Divas concerts, the Juno award-winning jazz virtuoso Jane Bunnett and her band.
I'm still mad that I couldn't get a ticket to this, but listening to it on the radio isn't a horrid alternative.
I love love love fado.
