1.In the Heart of the Moon by: Ali Farka Toure, Toumani Diabate June 27, 2005

I know little about world music and came to buy this having heard Toumani Diabaté's contributions to the Damon Albarn's co-authored Mali Music. I can see that some of the reviews here from the world music community have levelled accusations that this album is rather bland and that it has been watered-down to render it inoffensive for the wider music-buying community. Others have said that it is background music and that the musicians' playing is quite average and uninspired by their standards. From a layman's point of view, I cannot question the authenticity of the recording but can attest to the beauty of the music. If the accusation is that it is too simple, then my argument would be that simplicity is not necessarily a bad thing. The interplay ... Read More:

A beautiful mixture of music from Mali, the most recognisable African music,and the superb guitar of Ry Cooder. If you only listen to one track try track 5, Amandrai. Put a do not disturb sign on your door, Turn off the lights, sit back and be smothered in the lovely slow and smooth playing. Any music lover cannot fail to enjoy it. Also try Niafunke and The River also by Ali Faka Toure

I came across this album by fluke actually, but soooo glad I did. Flicking through the channels I came to the film 'Unfaithful'. Brilliant film. Went to look up the soundtrack for it and someone had written a review saying that the particular track from this album was not on the soundtrack to Unfaithful and thankfully they said which one it was on. This one! This album is fantastic, beautiful, bluesy, soulful and sexy to boot. I can't stop listening to it! I am about to go and purchase more from this guy and hope to be just as enthused by his other work.
