On the Road VI by Carf
It’s a cool, breezy afternoon here in Trinidad, and as I write I’m listening to Christopher Lydon and a bunch of musicians from Brazil and the USA “pulling apart the rhythms” of samba and other Brazilian grooves on the latest episode of Open Source Radio.
Musicians and brazilophiles should get a kick — and Trinis should identify.
Extremely interesting program. And thanks for your carnival posts! All our friends back in Alaska are appreciating these insights and glimpses into what is happening here in T&T.
Dear CFR:
Thanks for the link. Trinidad is one of the Caribbeen treats I’ve never experienced. But CLR James is on my top ten list of all-time esteemed writers. Dare I say: I call him “the good Naipaul.”
I dream of taking Open Source to Jamaica for the Calabash festival of talkers, writers and musicians. Do you know it?
Eagerly,
Chris Lydon
