Samba

SAMBA is the brand new release from "The Hendrix of the Sahara," Vieux Farka Toure. Previous releases have reached #1 on both the world music charts and CMJ world radio charts. Two tracks feature Idan Raichel (Vieux's partner in the Toure-Raichel Collective) on piano. The basic tracks for the album were recorded in front of a live audience. Vieux will be touring the US extensively around the release of the album, with dates TBD.
