***Recommended Show of the Week***
Gilles Peterson @ Vanguard
Every Sunday night all the cool kids in the UK tune in to Gilles’ radio show, Worldwide, on BBC Radio 1 to hear live sessions of popular and upcoming artists. It’s kind of like Rodney on the Roq, but far more groundbreaking and far less creepy. To support an upcoming ‘best of’ compilation, Gilles is taking his show on the road and showcasing acts featured on the album. Thursday night’s show at the Vanguard will feature heavyweights Dwele, Madlib, Peanut Butter Wolf, Rebirth and surprise guests (Beck?).

good call, i can testify GP can rock the body live.
he’ll also have an album available soon courtesy the good folks @ ubiquity. somebody over there told me about it several months back… this one’s following in the lines of the brazil and africa series, but is unique in that it’s on the domestic luv n haight label. most of the titles with G’s name are on some overseas imprint, making them pricey and a bit more difficult to find over here.
