Bassekou Kouyate & Ngoni Ba – Ba Power (CD)

Description

Bassekou Kouyate is one of the giants of Malian music and on Ba Power his masterful ngoni playing has reached an afro-rock intensity.  Distortion, wah wah and propulsive rhythms are now the defining backbone of his sound.  Guests include Samba Toure, trumpeter Jon Hassell & drummer Dave Smith (Robert Plant, JuJu).  New CD.
