Ali Farka Toure’s son follows in his late father’s footsteps with confidence and style & manages to stay out of his shadow in the process. Wonderful guitarist/singer/composer with an African rock/blues style. Great guests (including dad and Toumani Diabate) add extra flair. All of it is good. The torch has been successfully passed. *1. Upbeat, driving, cool. Great vox/guitar/flute/perc. *2. Midtempo w/rich vocals, light perc. 3. Wonderful instrumental duet w/dad. Slowish, cool guitars. 4. Mid w/lazy rhythm. Cool organ/horns almost a reggae sound. 5. Upbeat & tripping w/cool flute/perc. 6. Sweet, relaxed kora/guitar instrumental duet. Really pretty. *7. Upbeat w/snappy perc, driving guitars/vox. A cool sound. 8. Upbeat and catchy w/nice percussive accents & good vox/guitar. *9. Midtempo African blues rock w/extra good guitar/screaming vox. 10. Kora/guitar duet. Starts slow, picks up. A tour de force for both. | ||
