A Month Of... Around The World...

Today we spend some time "Under African Skies" with Paul Simon & Miriam Makeba... although, and I'm sure Bri & Julie will tell me if I'm right or wrong, Linda Ronstadt sang the female vocal on the original recording on Paul's "Graceland" album...



And thank you for the suggestion of "All Around The World", Julie, but I can't find it on YouTube...

Correct it was Linda...and as for Around The World...we just wanted to give you some fun at trying to find it...plus Bri was singing it NON STOP at the weekend!

Ah, see, now that's just cruelty to a poor blogger!

And there are worse things you could be serenaded by... unless Bri has a voice like a gull farting in the fog...
