Hello Doug.
Is this the penultimate show for Mr A? If so, WHY no more after next week?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:58am
Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
We have one more monthly installment planned for February. Six shows seemed like a good chunk to arrange for at the start, with a break for WFMU's fundraiser in March (though Chris and Matsuli Music will have a presence on my show during the marathon—more to come on that). The possibilities of more happening after February are wiiiide open.

As with "Fuduwa," this cut, "Carol's Drive" is a Jonas Gwangwa composition.

Listen for this iconic trombone sound underpinning this stuff. Classic bebop, with a twist.

Lyrics to "Sasol":

Leave them alone, we shall get them, we shall revenge
In the evenings, in the dark
They spending sleepless nights because of "umkhonto we sizwe"
They have no peace of mind because mkonto will exterminate them
They have no place to hide, because we are everywhere
This "mkonto we sizwe", we of "mkonto we sizwe"
Everybody knows about mkhonto, wherever they go
They spend sleepless nights because of Sasolberg
Vorster is ill as I am talking to you now.
