SUMMARY:Vieux Farka Touré + Tamikrest
LOCATION:AB Box (Anspachlaan 110\, 1000 Brussel)
DESCRIPTION:Mali guitar desert blues delicacyVieux? This is of course\nthe still young son of Ali Farka Touré. Born in 1981\,\ntrained as percussionist\, schooled by Toumani Diabaté but\nalso unequivocally the guitarist who - in the best of family\ntraditions - is able to keep bringing us Desert Blues\, that\nunique mix of West Africa and North America (that also\nappealed to Ry Cooder or often reminds one of the more\neasygoing Jimi Hendrix.) While we're at it: you'll\nsurely know Vieux Farka Touré otherwise from the World Cup\nFootball in South Africa where he was one of the notable\nstars. His third CD is now finished too: 'The\nSecret' (released by Coast To Coast)\, including the\ncollaboration of Dave Matthews (with whom Vieux also\noccasionally plays these days)\, plus jazz-guitar god John\nScofield\, plus a studio stunt with father Ali\neven!Tamikrest is a brilliant Touareg collective (and you\nmay also be reminded of Tinariwen.) Their second CD\n'Toumastin' is out now\, again on the very\nrespectable Glitterhouse label and again recorded by Chris -\nWalkabouts - Eckman. De Standaard wrote of it: '...\nstunning pieces of desert blues with all the typical\nelements: call & response singing\, chattering\npercussion and repetitive guitar\, bizarre wah-wah-effects\nand lyrics about desert flowers.' Recently in\nBritain's Mojo mag too: '4* Watch out Tinariwen\,\nsome new kids want your oasis!' Exciting!
