It’s been a while since I posted, thanks to a heavy work schedule ending in a small vacation for me, so I return with this week’s Bandcamp Weekly, featuring Joseph Malik, who went from suffering debilitating mental illness to making a slew of brilliant albums and having a fire inside him to make much more.
Check out this week’s podcast, hosted by Andrew Jervis, here.

The program is in French, so if you needed an excuse to practice, I can’t think of a better thing to inspire you with.
Another classic podcast by Adam Kvasnica, who spins timeless weird Iranian grooves.

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.

From Wikipedia:
I started out to become a jazz pianist; in the meantime I started singing and I sang the way I felt and that’s just the way it came out.
— Nat ‘King’ Cole, Voice of America interview
Few remember Nat ‘King’ Cole’s incredible piano playing abilities, but they certainly never seem to forget a his smooth, baritone voice, which handled languages outside of his native English with ease.
NPR dedicates a radio program to one of the smoothest voices jazz ever produced here.
