    OK here we go... Big stack with a few things I either passed over or lost... Some of my faves: #FelaKuti, #ThomasMapfumo, #Tarika (I say #Madagascar counts), #CheikhLo, #BaabaMaal, #YoussouNDour (I'm big on #Senegal music), #Tinarawen, #AliFarkaToure. Picked up lots of collections also. #Putomayo & #RoughGuide samplers early on.

  2. I have loved every genre of #AfricanMusic I've heard, but #Senegal is on my mind at the moment. #PeterGabriel turned me onto #BaabaMaal and I took it from there. It's a treasure house of great music. Baaba Maal's solo work is great, but the Baaba Maal/Mansour Seck album Djam Leelii is especially magical. open.spotify.com/album/3fI60xJ

  3. That 2002 #BaabaMaal run at #joespub during #APAP365 is part of my personal #globalFEST origin story. That was the proof of concepts that the professional market was there and we could open our peers ears further. Coupled with a show by #KarshKale and #Gigi that same weekend. allaboutjazz.com/baaba-maal-at
