I’ve now been playing long enough (52 years!) now that when I hear somebody play I can usually tell what they’re doing from a technical standpoint. One of the exceptions is this guy. I can even watch his hands and still not understand what’s going on.

Just found another type of music from Madagascar. I didn't even know that's where it was from when I stumbled on Salegy, but with that island you can't go wrong.

I read a prepublication draft of the book for a blurb, and I was *riveted*. In the early 18th century, the Zana-Malata people - a new culture created jointly by pirates from around the world and - came to dominate the island. They brought with them the democratic practices of pirate ships (where captains were elected and served at the pleasure of their crews) and the matriarchal traditions of some Malagasy, creating a feminist, anarchist "Libertalia."

Fanitsiana amin'izao iray volan'ny teny malagasy izao ho an'ireto artista ireto. Mijah: Ataovy ny dihin'i Mija no fiteny fa tsy diha. Tence Mena: Tompom-bady no fiteny fa tsy Topim-bady
