Review of Occitan Rock

Straightforward approach to an interesting subject -- I had never heard of Occitan and to learn about the language and its own poltical music was very interesting. The music is good and well recorded.

This piece would fit nicely in a "global beat" type segment or on any type of public radio music show.
