Because of school and other things this got kind of Iron Chef in that I just threw a bunch of songs together. And I fear I made shrimp cakes with butt sauce.
But, still. There's some good stuff in here. I swear!
Three songs come from this. It's a weird little compilation of Turkish folks living in Germany and making Turkish-y music while singing in German. The combination is oddly endearing but the songs here are the only ones I really like. (Psst. I wouldn't buy it.)
Oh. And this is my second favorite music video ever:
Herbie Mann sure has a hairy chest.
And that Charles Wilp album is terrible. Don't buy that, either.
I'm not making you want to listen to this, am I?

Oh. Hey. Can you do me a favor? If you know what the instrument featured in that Ensaio de Escola song is called, could you email me? It's just about my favorite instrument, but I've been unsuccessful when trying to google image "Brazilian instrument that goes 'hoo-a-ha-ha.'"
ROCK OVER LONDON. ROCK OVER CHICAGO.
