Show #9: June 19-25
When I plan these shows, sometimes I think that consistent themes are the way to go, and other times I think it's best if it's just a big jumble of groovy music. This week is definitely the latter! Everything starts off with some Soca in honour of Trinidad and Tobago's first appearance at the World Cup in Germany, and from there we're off in all directions - there's a reggae cover of Hot Chocolate, a Brazillian tinged groove from Quebec, a crazed Jerk track from Robert Charlebois, and a funk song sung by children. Like I said, a real jumble!
