[Music] Bandcamp Radio #161
Andrew Jervis broadcasts for Bandcamp.com as their chief curator and host of the Friday Night Session radio show (KUSF). I only wish Bandcamp would host more shows, but if this is it, it’s a damn good one.
This week’s show highlights Awesome Tapes from Africa, and Paris Strother, one third of the soulful Prince protégés known as King.

Mellow and very tasteful stuff, especially with the fine vocal work turned in by Gabriela Vermelho.
