Kongo Magni

The Malian singer/composer/guitarist scores again with a release full of the passionate, Afro blues music for which he is justly famous. He’s backed by a small combo which includes accordion, harmonica, balafon and traditional percussion. It’s rich , honest, and oh so good. He knows pain, and it comes though in his music. Yow. Play it all!!!
