We present music from the West African country of Benin (formerly Dahomey) as documented by a local record label, Albarika Store, and recently licensed and re-issued by the British label Acid Jazz. This music was originally recorded in the 1970's and 1980's.

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 Dennis Darrah at WGDR, Goddard College Plainfield, VT. wgdr.org/.
