Welcome to another round the world music adventure first broadcast on Sheffield Live! 93.2FM It was great fun to go over to Doncaster's Sine FM as a guest on Donald's Alt Shift Return. He asked me to bring some of GondwanaSound's favourite tracks and interspersed them with choices of his own, chatting as we went along. We re-broadcast the hour in two parts here on GondwanaSound.

Bay and Peter from Sheffield's Babel Songs, joined me in the studio, alas all too briefly but with enough time to play a couple of songs from the Crookes singing group. songs that have been collected from Sheffield's international community, a drinking song from the Ukraine and a bride's departing song from Turkey. They also brought with them details of their singing workshops.

With some new releases from Daby Toure, Alyth, Bingui Jah Jammy amongst old favourites we have another eclectic broadcast.

Joining me in the studio in January were two of the Ian McMillan Orchestra. Ian McMillan is well known as poet in residence for Barnsley FC and beat poet for Humberside police and a Radio 3 broadcaster. Luke Carver Goss plays accordian amongst other instruments, writes commissioned peices and plays in a number of bands including the much praised Tea Hodzic Trio.

The idea was to talk about their tour and new album Sharp Stories but somehow it didn't quite work out like that. I blame the coffee! The duo are masters of improvisation and it turned out to be a session full of mischief including the special improvisation for GondwanaSound.

Enjoy.
