Soooo hey yeah three years ago this guy Joe Tangari (whom you LOVE) wrote a piece for Pitchfork about Afrobeat that mentioned 100 songs. Then (and this is why you LOVE) he slapped together a torrent of 99 of the songs, plus liner notes (the text of his article). It’s called Africa 100, and if (like me) you have a growing interest in African popular music, you might want to locate this and dive in, baby.

Mercury Dance Band - Envy No Good from Africa 100 (shouldn’t be too hard to find the torrent… but if you are afraid of torrents, you can pop over to What’s In My iPod? for Sharebee links)
