Hey Steve, here tonight...recovering from first cold of the season (or flu). Thanks for music.. Listening to 'Dengue Fever', which I hadn't heard before. I recognized part of it. So I looked it up to find out (as you no doubt knew, and I'm boring you with.) it was a cover of 'Mulatu Astatke' by Yègellé Tezeta (who I don't know, but will look up), which was sampled in 'As We Enter' by Damian Marley & Nas. Then I realized that's were I recognized part of song before..

Hey Dave, get well soon. (As Benoit's not listening or commenting or correcting, just to advise the track title of the piece by Dengue Fever is Yègellé Tezeta, the artist is Mulatu Astatke.)

Thanks, I realized after you'd announced the track listing that I mixed the both bands with the song title.. I could use the excuse of my woozy cold head, but I won't!! 😁
