#labasosseh

Tune in this Thursday because we'll be listening to some salsa! We'll also hear some of the styles that led up to salsa, and we'll highlight a few of the top salseros of Africa, like Laba Sosseh, a singer from Gambia whose career took off in the 60s with the band Super Star de Dakar. From the 70s onwards, he recorded with some of the top salsa musicians of the US & Latin America. Tune in to @kcsbfm this Thursday at 8pm PDT! 📷 Image of Laba Sosseh album cover from nipperandme.blogspot.com #salsa #salsamusic #soncubano #salseros #salsaafricana #gambia #labasosseh #musichistory #communityradio #kcsb (at KCSB-FM 91.9 in Santa Barbara) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEC9lTIgtBr/?igshid=665jwiqno0v2
