When Cameos Steal the Show
Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
New hip hop and R&B tracks are filled with guest appearances, with rappers Lil' Wayne and Jay-Z popping up frequently. On today's show: find out why cameo spots have exploded in hip-hop. Also: In the late 60's, Peter Walker released a pair of seminal experimental acoustic guitar records that incorporated Indian raga sounds. Then he sort of disappeared, settling in Woodstock, NY. Now, almost 40 years later,
Walker is returning to the more experimental style he helped to create
and joins us today with a live performance. Finally: Soundcheck's CD Picks of the Week.
