The thriving Desert Blues sound of the Saharan peoples is the spiritual homeland of the blues. This collection explores the songs and stories of the Desert Blues, and features many of the continents best loved musicians... Enjoy! (From Butterboy)
"Desert Blues / Ambiances of the Sahara" in a voyage through the tradition of the Sahara, Sahel and payrolls with which they live. The double CD (because of the two heures and the demise of it) illustrates the story of three calms of the African musical and our present voice plus the merveilleuses. From here on the ensorcellent, the following on the moments of sadness and the jubilant moments of joie: "A chant that resembles the vagaries of the night" as I resented Bruce Chatwin. This is a music that you want to visit in the United States and Guérit, as well as not to talk about Touaregs. The Couples and the Ambiances of the Music in a Parent of Paying Splendids: Deserts, Step and Forces, The Various Cultures and the Small Things Who Live: Touaregs, Mandingues, Fulbes, Maures ..... , of the sublime chanters: the Sénégalais Baaba Maal and Youssou N'Dour as in our encore never understood. Du Mali, in our presence Ali Farka Touré, who wrote the Grammy, in the role of Ry Cooder, Taj Mahal and the Chanteuses Oumou Sangare et Sali Sidibe. Du Maroc, the Gnawa music of Hassan Hakmoun. Dimi Mint Abba's "pure voice" "plus the great African chanteuse" (Ali Farka Touré), and Gambie's, the great virtue of the Tora Dindin. From Guinée, Kante Manfila, who is waiting for the Salif Keita années. Du Soudan, Abdel Gadir Salim and Hamza El Din. D'Ethiopie, Aster Aweke and Mahmoud Ahmed, who charters with arrangements inspired by Soul and blues.
Desert Blues 2 starts off with strong selections from Majid Bekkas and Boubacar Traore, featuring melancholy guitars and vocals winding around nervously tapping percussion. Gradually, over the set’s two-disc length, the songs run a gorgeous course between bright and celebratory and solitary and very bluesy indeed. The same multiple facets as volume one are in evidence, along with the same balance of familiar and lesser-known names. Plenty of calabashes and n’goni lutes are heard, but there’s also bottleneck guitar spacing out alongside kora, Tuareg and Gnawa sounds that keep the journey a spiritual one, music that could’ve come from the Mississippi Delta if not for the growly non-English lyrics, ancient pentatonic scale riffs serviced by modern dance grooves and loads more of the same kind of diversity you’d expect to come from and area roughly the size of the U.S.
A fair number of the songs are by women, and the set is also reflective of their artistic emergence from certain countries and cultures where their role has been secondary. There’s a lot going on here, and anyone who bought the first volume with the thought that there must be much more will find out how right they were. Reves D’Oasis will refresh and rejuvenate you like bountiful flowing water found in the midst of barren desolation.
The third element "Desert Blues 3," is no exception to this rule and is proposing 28 new pieces have in common their obvious similarities to the blues. A good twenty different artists more or less known (Cheb Khaled, Souad Massi, Malouma, Dhafer Youssef, Amadou & Mariam, Ali Farka Toure, Toumani Diabate, Oumou Sangare, Rokia Traore, Kronos Quartet, Tinariwen or Gigi Queen ' Addis Ababa and the Ethiopian saxophonist Getatchew of Mekurya).
