When Tom Schnabel hosted MBE he brought the world to our airwaves and introduced us to the music of Cape Verde, particularly diva Cesaria Evora. The songs were so beautifully melancholy they transcended the language barrier and we're thrilled to offer this stunning live version of "Miss Perfumado" as Today's Top Tune.
