		<description><![CDATA[Did I tell you that I&#8217;m learning Spanish?  A second visit to South America this summer confirmed my desire to one day live in Buenos Aires, or possibly Santiago.. or, hey, Colombia.  Why not.  Anyway, in honour of my (painfully slow, despite the French) adoption of a new language, let&#8217;s play some [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today we have a guest post from Benn loxo listener, CC Smith, in memory of Madilu System:
Bialu Makiese, better known as Madilu System, died suddenly on Aug. 11 in Kinshasa from complications of diabetes. He was 57 years old. 
A member of the beefy front line of singers of TPOK Jazz since 1980, Madilu was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Benn loxo reader and contributor, Fabián, comes through again with some great music by Congolese musicians living in Kenya during the 1970s.  I&#8217;ve also included a few tracks from my own collection to beef-up the post.
I love reading the stories about how all these bands and the personalities behind them are connected.  This [...]]]></description>

She became popular when she started singing with Tabu Ley Rochereau during the 1980s and eventually earned a reputation as a solo artist through her work with percussionist Rigo Star in Paris.  She now lives on the West Coast in the US.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Soukous is one of the most recognizable forms of sub-Saharan African music.  It has a large following in Western countries not limited to African ex-pats, comes in many forms and has been around for a long time.  Old-school African music collectors will sneer at new forms of the music while the kids at Le Voyageur will laugh at the soukous of old.]]></description>
