I’m kicking this off with my own 36 year-old origin story before diving into music discovery. You’ll also hear how Muddy Waters may have inadvertently killed off the Esso Trinidad Steel Band. And how Kermit the Frog sparked an unexpected 75-mile love connection, facilitated via KEXP in Seattle.
In between: New Order, Hot 8 Brass Band, Colleen, Helado Negro, “monster cumbia” from CERO 39, and some lovely, nightmarish, exhilarating stuff from Anna Meredith. And mucho mas.
You’re an early listener. Let me hear from you. Leave feedback within the Spotify app or drop a voicemail at +1 415-862-0441. Wordy people, send an email: saturdaymorningflavor@gmail.com. Thanks.
