A couple of good finds from yesterday's Celtic Connections show.
A very promising band of American urban folkies doing trad material
is Ham, whose "Cuckoo Song" comes off their album Rabbit Song.
 
The African track, I'm having trouble pinning down.  Mickey and I 
*thought* it would be Lokua Kanza, but the sound samples for that album
at amazon.com don't match what I think I heard on the radio.
Otherwise maybe it's a new Late Junction release by Suuf, or else
Papa Wemba.  I'm gonna have to go over that show again and try to 
pin it down.  Yargh.
