  1. This morning's #workout #music is from Boubacar Traoré who is one of my all time favorite performers in any genre. This concert from 2022, when he was 80 years old has the same fresh spirit his music has always embodied.

  2. #NowPlaying #8TrackTuesday #DeadFormats #AfricanMusic

    Saif Abu Bakr & the Scorpions were a #Sudanese #Jazz band whose lone 1980 album somehow only saw release on the Bon Zaid Phone label out of #Kuwait. This was one of a scant few #8track cartridges ever released in that country, all which were made . . . in Greece. This probably speaks of some interesting cross-cultural relationships between Kuwait, Sudan, and Greece back then, but all I can verify is that this African organ/sax/guitar mix sounds funky and still feels great today.
