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.

And Not Enough: Rusted Root and "Too Much"
Pittsburgh band Rusted Root brings us today's random tune. A worldbeat band founded in 1990, Rusted Root is known for its fusion of acoustic, rock, world and other types of music with percussion that draws on African, Latin American and Native American influences and lyrics that often reference Christianity and Judaism. Co-founder Michael Glabicki cites as inspiration for the band the success of Peter Gabriel's world infused 1986 album So. The band has sold 3 million albums, led by its platinum 1994 album When I Woke. This song, Too Much, is from their 2002 album Welcome to My Party.
Listen to songs like this and more on the KUNM Global Music Show every Monday night from 10 pm - 1 am Mountain Standard Time. Live streaming, program information and the two-week digital archive can be found at http://www.kunm.org.
