Funding Drive today. Thank you to everyone who pledged a donation. Last week's show ended up highlighting great female singers, so this week the obvious thing to do was showcase some of the greatest male singers. We hear some of my absolute favourite singers from West and East Africa, Egypt, Iran, and Pakistan.
