|
Warm and sweet acoustic guitar/kora/percussion from a Senegalese griot. He has a rich, sweet natural voice that conveys emotion and always seems real. Beautiful stuff. *1. Relaxed and sunny downtempo. Sleepily lovely. 2. Downtempo and lazy with a honey-sweet sound. *3. Fun and bright midtempo sway w/sweet harmonies & percussion. 4. Slow, dreamy kora and then light vocals. Lyrical. *5. Quirky percussion, strong strings, whispery vocals. Midtempo. *6. Relaxed but passionate w/ a strong blues streak. 7. Solo guitar and finger snaps lead into a downtempo ode. 8. Relaxed strings. Some wonderful kora and guitar plus vocals. 9. Relaxed sweep of vocals and strings. Beautiful. *10. Lazy, downtempo strings that picks up. *11. Warm and luscious that picks up energy and life. 12. Sweet downtempo ode w/a warm, flowing feeling. 13. Rich down/midtempo sway. Lovely. | ||
