Today, June 12, is a pretty special day.

Last night, when I got home, my heart skipped a beat when I saw my mailbox stuffed with over-sized envelopes. And what did I find? A copy of Blue Scholars’ long awaited third album, Bayani, which hits stores nationwide today.

Here at Boston Progress Radio, being the rabid avid Blue Scholars fans that some of us are, we are lucky to be able to feature several tracks from the new album on our radio… (Many thanks to David at Fuzed Music!) We’re also going to play a few of our favorite tracks from their previous albums: The Long March and Blue Scholars.

From Bayani’s liner notes:

“A hero serves the people to his very last breath.” ~ Jose Maria Sison

For those who struggle with love from the third world to the belly… This one’s for you. Until we get free. Isulong!

I have nothing to say about the album because I promised that I wouldn’t listen to it until it was uploaded to the radio. And when I say something, I mean it. So, tune in here to take a first listen along with me. Enjoy!

Editor’s Note: Remember to tune into KEXP 90.3 FM Seattle at 9:30 AM PDT/12:30 PM EDT, Blue Scholars will be performing some of the tracks off Bayani at that time.
