This week's mp3 offering at Radiodiffusion is one of Stuart's finds that raises more questions than it answers, a pop music LP from Papua New Guinea. Its old-school, academically lecherous, National Geographic-esque cover has nothing to do with the electric guitars that emerge from its grooves and it was put out by a label in New Zealand, both of which suggest that it was not for local consumption. No date of release, no indication of what the language is. As for the tunes, they're not bad.
