Vieux Farka Touré - Les Racines

Regular price $47.00 Sale

Vieux Farka Touré, the ‘Hendrix of the Sahara’ and son of the late Ali Farka Touré, widely acclaimed as Africa’s greatest ever guitarist, has, over his five solo album releases to date, established himself as an illustrious musician who has emphatically widened the boundaries of West African music. With his latest release, Les Racines, which translates as ‘the roots’, the title says it all, as Vieux returns with music which reconnects with the traditional northern Mali Songhai music, introduced to the wider world by his father and given the Western label ‘Desert Blues’.
