We commemorate the passing of reggae legend Toots Hibbert with a rebroadcast of a show about Toots & The Maytals that I originally created for the WRIR program Cause & Effect back in May of 2013
Produced at Natural Log Studio. Broadcast on WRIR 97.3 FM Richmond Independent Radio in Richmond, Virginia every Monday from 3 to 5 PM. Available as a webstream simulcast at wrir.org. Downloads for rebroadcast on other non-profit radio stations and as podcasts via the A-Infos Radio Project at radio4all.net. And more information about all of those options and more on my blog, globalagogo.com.
