Spin the Globe: Live Locally, Groove Globally
Fridays 10-noon (Pacific) on KAOS 89.3 FM Olympia, and streaming live
==================================================
This month marks the birthdays of two of the planet's most prolific soundtrack singers: sisters Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle of Bollywood playback fame. We'll hear songs from them and from other global soundtracks this week, plus more.
Last week I mentioned a soccer documentary; this week, I can't fail to mention the first trophy secured by the new-look Seattle Sounders. In a tough match, they defeated DC United 2-1 yesterday, bringing home tirhe first hardware. Congrats to the team, and special kudos to the hundred-odd rabid fans who made the trek to DC in their rave green to support the team! You can see highlights of the game here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMLxqWTY34Q
And remember, Spin The Globe's 10-year anniversary is next month -- and the on-air party is scheduled for Sept. 18. Gifts in the form of comments or station IDs or edibles will be warmly welcomed. Especially dark chocolate. Spin The Globe loves dark chocolate.
