Accordion Noir: Playlist: Nov 2, 2008, Taste of Co-op, yakkin' with Accordion Noir!

Just a little special we got to do where all the shows on the station come on and chat with Marc Lindey from the Gospel Train. We were preceded by The F Word, ("Feminist," Sat 8-9 AM,) and followed by the Persian show Pazhvak (Mon 9-10 PM). We hope to have them on to talk about Iranian/Persian accordions, cool!

Please support www.AccordionNoir.org and www.CoopRadio.org Tell them we sent you.
