Posted about 1 year ago


apart from his collaboration with Joe Strummer on "Rock the Casbah". So, to redress the balance, here is the man himself, in 1995, with a song that is the type of tune Bo Diddley and Clifton Chenier might have made if they were both Algerian.

If that doesn't persuade you to hit that red button, then I don't know what will

    Good Lord, what a groove! As I once said in regard to another great song I heard on MOG, you could plant an oak tree in it....

    I really like it a lot.  Wikepedia says he's based in Paris but born in Algeria.  I bet even rural Algerians would enjoy this.
