Friday music: If you don't love jazz (and African music), you hate America

Marcus Miller, "Hylife," from Afrodeezia.  Miller's music isn't always to my taste, but following some of my comments on Jaco Pastorius a few days back, Miller is about as impressive a bassist as you can find working today, and Afrodeezia was an interesting album combining modern jazz and African music.

Funny, but I have a Tuesday series on music from other countries.  I feature a lot of music from Africa.  Not much from Norway, though.  Why?  African music is great, and Norwegian music sucks.

I like the arts.  I'd like more immigrants from Africa.  Please, bring your art with you.  Norway can go fuck itself until their music stops sucking.
