about
(Featuring Groupe Bwazan) In the Bwa, or Bobo language, Mali Za means: “The People of Mali.” The song asks people to have the courage to preserve their culture through this difficult time. In past times, the ancestors of the Bwa were known for their profound integrity and respect of their culture. Their traditional education did not allow them to lie, steal, or be deceptive. Meanness and hypocrisy didn’t exist. Adama asks people to return to these values and education.

I simply love this Toureg kind of desert blues. If you like Tinariwen or Tamikrest check out this band in exile. I sincerely hope, that they will soon be able to play in their home country, again...

If you like desert blues like Tinariwen, or even just blues like Junior Kimborough, you are going to flip over this one. This is just good stuff plain and simple all the way through.

Nahawa Doumbia has a beautiful voice that fits perfectly with the arrangements accompanying her on these songs. What is there not to love in this album? It's all beauty.

Another one of my favorite AA titles. Snaky, jazzy melodies played over funky rhythms. One of those albums you won't even realize how often you've been playing it.
