Years ago I read a fantastic article about the music of the African Rainforest Pygmies. It was written by Richard Henderson for The Beat and it came with a great discography of field recordings documenting their musical styles and rituals. Here is a link to a pdf of this article.

So, recently I decided to delve into the genre (can we use that term for music born of an isolated hunter-gatherer society?). I picked up a sealed copy of Ceremonies du Bobe and I'm diving in! I had to take a picture of it before I cut it from it's time yellowed early 90's blister pack packaging.
Sorry about the junky cell phone pic.

I wish I could pick up 90.9 but, alas, I am too far down I-15. Smile Jamaica is one of the best reggae programs in the US.

Yes, I listen to Smile Jamaica when I can.
I think they have an internet stream. Maybe you could connect to that?
