Puerta to the heart of America

Came upon this rich radio program that shows that NPR can be cooler, browner, and younger than I realized. Who knew? Clearly not me.

Some of the musicians I knew about and loved, some are new to me. All display the dazzling crazy diversity of America (i.e. the bigger version that starts with Chile and ends hmmm...in Arizona?) Music, for me, is the audible heart of a pueblo. Fado, cumbia, blues. It reflects who we are, and it is universal.

If you want to listen to music you'll never hear on the radio, practice your Spanish or just get down, click on this!
