TAS Super LP List! Special Merit: Informal
Grammy Award-Winning Classic Album Now on 180g Double Vinyl!
Mastered from the Original Analog Tapes! Features Exclusive Vinyl-Only Track!
When Ali met Ry Cooder in 1992, they really bonded and Ali later presented him with the first instrument he made, a one-string lute called a djerkal. Recorded in just three days in LA in 1993, the resulting collaboration 'Talking Timbuktu' well deserved its Grammy Award. Relaxed and accessible, the music is complimented by Ry's subtle guitar work and sensitive production while retaining the integrity of Ali's performance.
Ali Farke Toure and Ry Cooder have long treasured each others recordings. They first met in London in 1992 while both were touring Europe. It was agreed that they should 'try something together.' This something became Talking Timbuktu, a Grammy award-winning classic album.
In September '93, Toure was set to play a string of dates in the States and a week was set aside for recording his new album. Cooder was to play on a couple of tracks. A few hours rehearsal at Cooder's Santa Monica home hinted at inspiring possibilities. The Malian guitarist's next three Californian dates all featured Cooder as special guest. The recording followed a week later by which time Cooder had agreed to produce the entire album and play on every track. The whole album, recorded in three days, is now available on vinyl with an additional previously unreleased track.
"Guitarist Ali Farka Touré has repeatedly bridged the gap between traditional African and contemporary American vernacular music, and this release continues that tradition." -Ron Wynn, allmusic.com
