    amf.didiermary.fr/ali-farka-to

    Mon correspondant allemand m’a offert cet album, Talking Timbuktu, pour mon anniversaire, il y a des années. Je me suis littéralement forcé à l’écouter, car c’était un cadeau…

    Je vais probablement me faire lyncher, mais je n’ai jamais accroché. C’est beau, c’est bien fait, etc.

  19. Ali Farka Touré with Ry Cooder - Talking Timbuktu

    A Grammy-winner for a reason, this wasn't available on vinyl for a long time. And it's a really beautiful recording of the Malian desert blues player, with Cooder playing along with a few known players (eg Jim Keltner) and a whole lot of African masters.

    Anyway, no doubt you've heard it. And if by some chance you haven't...you really should.

  20. Ali Farka Touré - Green

    Mark Knopfler's distinctive guitar work made me think of this Malian musician, who is typically remembered for Talking Timbuktu, a 1994 album made with Ry Cooder.

    Both Red and Green are terrific examples of north African proto-blues, and the great music that comes out of Mali in general. Unavailable for a long time, it was a great RSD pickup.

  21. Drove an hour on the highway to have lunch w/an aunt i haven’t seen in years. The muddy winter “tundra” of Maine’s soil is giving way to new growth. Listening to Ali Farka Toure and Fatoumata Diawara. Seems like a juxtoposition against the fading backdrop of the remains of winter, but they work PERFECTLY! Their music is extremely ALIVE and awakening. That’s what I’m all about at this time. Give each of them a listen!
