Rebekah and Martin will be making a return visit to Tanzania in February to visit the Gogo people whose music was recorded on the Sing to the Well project. To remind you all ….. here is a short video of the Tanzanian village as they celebrate with music and dancing.
Michael from Germany sent me this very funny story told by Bill Cosby of his early exploits as a young drummer in Philadelphia. Drummers will have been there!!
