Ali Toure "Farka" - Ali Toure Dit Farka (1976) [LP]
The birth of a legend – one of those sublime 70s albums that made Ali Farka Toure a standout right from the start! The mix of vocals and acoustic guitar is incredible – with all of the inflections and subtle complications you might have found in early rural blues recordings from the south – but served up in a completely different style – one that so many have mistakenly dubbed the African version of blues, but which is really a much more personal expression – and one that has made Toure's music so individual, even amidst a world of copycats. Titles include "Roi Fayssal", "Biennale", "Hali", "Radio Mali", "Karanda Bala Bozo", and "Treikongo".
