In this episode, Nate Wilcox and author Ned Sublette have the first of several conversations about Ned's book "Cuba and Its Music: From the First Drums to the Mambo." This episode focuses on the cultural collisions and cross-pollination triggered when Europeans enslaved Africans and dragged them, and their music, across the Atlantic.
