Desert Blues Part One: Desert Blues, a music project with Habib Koité, Afel Bocoum and the Tuareg-Women-Ensemble Tartit from Timbuktu.
All of these musicians are magicians...their sound and passion is unmistakable and unmistakably moving. I've heard music all over the world, but nothing has gotten into my bones like that which comes out of West Africa. These are truly an extraordinary people. Please check out this video, its mighty fine.
Desert Blues Part Two: Truly desert blues....more magic from Habib Koite and friend, Mali, West Africa.
