    Guitar came via the violin, which sounds like love made right. The guitar can play all night. It drowns out the circumference around someone. Bringing peace, relaxation and both men knew how that blocks out harm. Alas, we all must come home and Al Farka Toure alongside Cooder sure brought me there. Thanks to both. Rebecca Ann Grubb

    I heard this piece more than 15 years ago, it was playing at a local Tower Records and i immediately fell in love with it! Many years later i had the great pleasure to be a band member with a friend from Nigeria; needless to say i really fell for African styles of music!

    You can really appreciate the collaboration between Ali Farka Touré and Ry Cooder here. I hear a great fusion between African and African-American musical traditions.

      from a documentary i watched 20 yrs ago, he travelled the world & brought his money home to support his village, his homeland,
      & to welcome other great musicians to jam together in his studio,
      a world citizen who did not forget the people & place from where he was raised.

      @@mindsigh4 Yes, and he was the mayor of Niafunké, using his earnings to improve farming and irrigation for his people. A true patriot of Mali. He even considered himself as a farmer and discouraged his son, Vieux Farka Touré from pursuing music because of the difficulties he faced. Thankfully, he finally gave his blessing to the very talented Vieux Farka Touré shortly before his passing from bone cancer. A brilliant musician.

    The best blues rock is coming from the continent of its origins. Blues is taking it's final breath in America.
    This Talented man put African blues on the musical map an inspiration for Tinariwen, Tamikrest , Modou moctar and more.

      Blues is a distinct American art form originating in the Mississippi Delta, among slave descendants, long ago. John Lee Hooker actually preceded the great Ali Farka and influenced him. Traditional African music is upbeat, dance-able, not unlike Native American and some Asian music, and very different than twelve or eight bar blues. The reflexive tendency to ascribe blues (and many other things)to Africa does a dis-service to the real blues pioneers in America. That said, AFT is a treasure chest of resonant musical rhythms.

If you listen to tinariwen song Tahalamot you will or Sadi fatou ghali tehilele will sound like the field hollering and chants of slaves who worked in the cotton fields.

      @@arsalanali9710 You’re drawing conclusions from Tinariwen, performing in 2014 on electric guitar, obviously borrowing heavily from Ali Farka Touré, who in turn was influenced by John Lee Hooker. You’re mixing eras in time to create a narrative.
      Authentic blues is a distinctive American art form originating in the Delta region of Mississippi from descendants of despairing fieldworkers. Traditional African music is similar to indigenous music from around the world and most often upbeat, celebratory, chanting, dancing, and festival like, and lacking the chordal arrangement and notes of authentic blues. One can travel around the World and listen to indigenous music and find similarities to music of today, but to deny the creativity of those pioneering Delta blues artists is a disservice. Not everything originated in Africa. BB King is not a music historian, and I doubt you are either.

      @@commanderthorkilj.amundsen3426 Yes, and to further support your point, Ali Farka Touré himself rejected the description of desert blues, saying that he played African music. Although, as you pointed out correctly, Farka Touré was heavily influenced by John Lee Hooker. He fused the two genres, but his music is essentially African.

    Written by Ali Farka Toure in Tamasheq (the Berber language of the Touareg, related to the Semitic languages and ancient Egyptian). Liner note: "I travel to see my love but I cannot enter her house. I sing or play so that she will hear me and will find a way to meet me. Then I must return home to wake early for work."

      @@nomadicphilosopher3110 I said "related to the Semitic languages"... Semitic is one branch of the Afroasiatic family, and "Hamitic" is a catchall for all the other branches: Amazigh (Berber), Cushitic (e.g., Somali), Chadic (e.g., Hausa), and Egyptian. They're about as far from each other as they are from Semitic (Egyptian may be a bit closer to Semitic, but that may be only because it's attested much earlier). To your last sentence, amen!
