Hosted by Dennis Darrah.

Music from around the world is featured. Bringing the audience into the realm of other cultures through music, hopefully expanding empathy for the “other,” and recognizing that “other” in ourselves. From WGDR, Goddard College Plainfield, VT. wgdr.org/. This week: Shakti is a band formed in the early 1970s by guitarist John McLaughlin and tabla master Zakir Hussain fusing the classical music of India with Jazz improvisation. We've presented music from their studio albums in the past, today we hear them live in concert at The Montreux Jazz Festival in 1977.
