		<description><![CDATA[A little more from Iceland today. Have any of you ever tried ice climbing? Seriously fun.. I was like a Canadian stereotype, up there on the ice. I also happened to have a Cuban cigar in my pocket. There&#8217;s nothing quite like blowing smoke rings on top of a glacier, looking out at the sea. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today we&#8217;ll hear a couple tracks off Original Music&#8217;s compilation of Zambian miners&#8217; songs, From The Copperbelt. The recordings were all made by the amazing Hugh Tracey. I&#8217;ve always had a thing for southern African, mid-20th century music. George Sibanda and The Forgotten Guitars of Mozambique compilation were early favourites. From The Copperbelt covers a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of my favourite strands of music from across the African continent is a variety of styles that employ the European acoustic guitar. Original Music&#8217;s compilation, African Acoustic: Sounds Eastern and Southern, as the name implies, explores just that in eastern and southern African countries. My two favourite tracks are both from the East so [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bob Brozman released a great album a few months ago called Lumière. Every piece is based on an improvisation &#8211; he starts with a simple melody and builds on the idea, adding layer upon layer of various forms of stringed instrument.

For the sake of completion and out of respect for Angola&#8217;s most famous musician, here you are.

		<description><![CDATA[I was wading through the mediatheque a few weeks back and stumbled upon a re-issue of a 1973 record by Cabo Verdian guitarist, Humbertona. Great find. The music immediately transports you to the Cabo Verde islands, and the original recording&#8217;s sound has been nicely cleaned-up. The people behind this release are Morabeza Records, a label [...]]]></description>
