Tinariwen; Vieux Farka Touré November 4, 2007

Gritty, soulful guitar riffs direct from the Sahara: World music rising stars Tinariwen fuse North African rhythms with raucous electric blues, as on their new CD, Aman Iman. Vieux Farka Touré, son of the late Malian guitar legend Ali, appears supporting a “nearly flawless” (Boston Globe) debut CD.
