During the 1980s and 90s, DJ Andy Kershaw travelled around Africa and the Americas searching out great music and taping it on his Walkman Pro, a new broadcast-quality cassette recorder that was bringing about a revolution in mobile recording. He also used it to capture his celebrated Kitchen Sessions, held in his small flat in Crouch End. In the second of four features, Andy delves into his boxes of cassettes and brings us music from his journeys in the USA and the Caribbean, including his visit to Cajun country, a session with the Jolly Boys in Jamaica, his encounter with street singer Ted Hawkins in Los Angeles, and his interview with Trinidadian calypso legend The Roaring Lion. Plus Kitchen Sessions with Cuban singer Celina Gonzales and SE Rogie from Sierra Leone (first broadcast in 2020)
