A blog about world and global music from a guy who co-hosts the KUNM Global Music Show, 89.9 FM Albuquerque/Santa Fe, http://www.kunm.org. I post one song a day, with reflections on the music, life, and whatever else comes into my mind.

Maybe It's the Food: Orchestre Tropicana D'Haiti and "Gason Total"
Today's song, Gason Total, is by the Orchestre Tropicana D'Haiti, the only big band left performing in Haiti. That's about all I could find on them. The picture in the video is of Joe Zenny, a Haitian singer and actor. I'm not sure if this is him singing with the Orchestre. Regardless, it's a nice tropical tune that can be found on the compilation CD Putumayo World Party (2007). Enjoy!
