I would imagine I am not the only American music fan who didn’t know Shakira existed until her single “Whenever, Whenever” was on repeat on every music station in 2001.

Several of the artists have been featured with popularContinue reading “Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums #497 – The Indestructible Beat of Soweto Volume One”
