and here's Ali Farka Toure from 1990 playing in a traditional northern Malian style, accompanied by British instrumentalist Rory McLeod on harmonica, creating a sound that might not be wholly unfamiliar to blues fans

    This is a half heartbeat from John Lee Hooker's take on the blues,  you know what I mean?

    This stellar track pleasures me.  Mali's not far from where blues musicians' ancestors were from.
