I just heard on Weekend Edition Saturday that country music is big in Kenya. Who woulda thunk it? They seem to have a special fervor for the genre, and even have their own country artists. I guess the heartached-laced optimism would appeal to a country that has been through so much. This world is so, very small sometimes. I mean "Coward of the County" in Kenya?? Maybe some of my fellow Texans might have something more in common with Africans than they think. I doubt those Texans listen to much NPR though.
