THIS WEEK'S SHOW

Seun Kuti performs in Seattle June 28, and we took the cue to look back at his father's development of Afrobeat and how it spread through his family and his band. Plus new releases and other tunes in the second hour.

Past Spin The Globe shows
are available for a limited time
in our archives.
