Conference of the Birds, 6-21-13

NOTE: Some technical issues w/ the studio recording equipment this week resulted in a few recording idiosyncracies. I've corrected where possible, but non-digital (vocal and lp) material is a bit 'warbly'. 

This week: Special three hour episode in advance of vacation week! Pierre Akendengue x 2; Bopol Mansiamina; music from the Nilgiri Hills in South India; Ba-Benzélé Pygmies; Mauricio Kagel conduucts Ensemble Moderne performing Mauricio Kagel; Braxton Quartet in Willisau; Waldermar Bastos in London; Craig Harris w. Nation of Imagination; Louis Moholo; Mohammed Reza Shahjarian; Jorge Humberto; Abjeez (Iranian pop): much more..
