My first exposure to African music was to Fela’s record Zombie. My second was to the
dance music of Toure Kunda, the Senegalese band whose records spiced up
countless mid-80’s parties at University.
After their bright flash across the consciousness of American college
kids TK seem to have faded from
view. Sad, because they opened an intriguing window into the music of that West
African country, that their disappearance or fall from critical favour, seemed
to slam shut.
Today the spotlight is back on Senegal with a fabulous
double disc set called African Pearls:
The Spirit of Teranga Senegal.
A languid tour of Senegalese music as if on a local bus that
stops frequently at village after village.
In no hurry to get to wherever you think you’re supposed to be going but
by the time you get there your questions have been answered. Though curiosity
is peaked and you are hungry for more.
Disc one is traditional music played on traditional
instruments, to ancient rhythms. Disc two is full of that sleepy, sexy Latino
club sound, played on loosely strung guitars and drum kits from another era.
All very addictive.

If you have a dog that tears up the house when you're gone, or chews his own fur until he's raw he may not be a "bad boy." Instead, it may be a sign of a serious psychological problem in dogs known as separation anxiety. When Fritz pulls up the linoleum by the door, or scratches the walls and doors until they, and his paws are a mess, take a good look at when these actions are occurring. If they're happening only when you leave him alone in the house, especially for extended periods of time, it's likely not because he's looking for trouble, it's because he's panicking about being away from you.
Separation anxiety has been a problem for certain types of dogs for hundreds of years, but it's only recently that veterinarians and animal behaviorists realized that Fritz isn't being bad. Punishing your dog for destroying the house, the yard if his kennel is outside, or even himself will only make the problem worse instead of better. That's why so many dogs became known as incorrigible until experts realized what was really going on.
In the most extreme cases of separation anxiety, you don't even have to leave the house to see the effects on your dog. Even leaving the dog in a different room, or in his dog crate can bring on attacks of separation anxiety. In fact, a case of separation anxiety is one of the only reasons when crate training is not a good idea right off the bat. The usually very safe crate that keeps your dog out of trouble can turn into a mini torture chamber where Fritz will tear up his own paws clawing at the metal bars on the door or the sides of a wire crate. Being in such a small enclosure with no room to move can also aggravate those who would chew at themselves and you can end up with a dog bleeding from cuts and scrapes from his very own teeth.
