New releases from Kenya, Niger, Mali, Israel and more
Today's focus is almost entirely African, with new releases from Vieux Farka Toure, Etran Finatawa, Orchestra Super Mazembe. Etran Finatawa is comprised of musicians from two ethnic groups found throughout West Africa, the Tuareg and the Fulani. We will hear some other Tuareg and Fulani musicans as well. The Fulani musicians in particular are from a subgroup found in southern Niger, the Wodaabe Fulani, who possess fascinating cultural practices towards love, marriage, and child raising, and also wonderful music. As part of the show we will take a musical journey with the Fulani from Southern Niger westwards towards the African Atlantic coast.
The new compilation from Orchestra Mazemba features 9 wonderful 45rpm singles from the 70's and 80's never before released on LP or CD. Listen to those guitars! |

Vieux Farka Toure's 4th album is his strongest yet in my opinion, he has found his own mature voice distinct from his famous father. |
