Con Sabor Playlist-6/8/2024-KPFA 94.1 FM and www.kpfa.org

Hi Everybody, I hope that you are enjoying the beginning of Summer here in the Bay Area! June 2024 has taken off in a big way with outdoor events featuring great music. Last weekend not only did Pacific Mambo Orchestra play at KCSM’s Jazz On The Hill but the Hayward Latin Jazz Fest featured the Latin Rhythm Boys, Momotombo SF, Mio Flores Salsazz All Stars, Ricky Aguilar’s Grupo Afro Nativo, Sentimiento Y Manana and Louis Carranza’s all star descarga. If that wasn’t enough, Oakland Carnival 2024 was celebrated with Trinidadian legend Superblue and rising star Motto from Guatemala who got the crowd pumped up. On a separate area of the park, a Latin themed stage featured former Los Van Van vocalist Yeny Valdes with her tight Team Bahia band playing a lively repertoire of her original tunes as well as her Van Van hits to an adoring crowd.

What a blessing to live in an area where you can see in the next month, shows with Puerto Rican Salseros Nino Segarra, Choco Orta and Rico Walker (formerly with Bobby Valentin, Don Perigñon and Willie Rosario). More shows to talk about in future postings on this blog!

Here is the playlist for last night (Sat. 6/8/2024-9 PM PST). Hope you enjoyed the show. The show is available for streaming at www.kpfa.org/archives for two weeks after broadcast. Be sure to enter the date, time and the name of my program “Con Sabor” to access the program. Here is the playlist
