Habib Koité has become one of the really great stars of world music, not least because of his gripping live performances. His desert blues is influenced by Jimi Hendrix, Flamenco and Cuban Son. Nevertheless, he without doubt sounds African, also because Koité has adapted the traditional way of playing instruments such as the Kora and the Ngoni for the guitar. Now, with a new band, he presents his current album: an undaunted and sensitive blend of the all the Mali nuances with reminiscences of soul and blues and modern Afro groove.
