Songhai
A chance meeting at a London house party led to this melodious collaboration between Mali kora virtuoso Diabate and the young, flamenco-based Spanish group Ketama. While Diabate's dazzling runs often give the impression of several instruments being played at once, Ketama is a group with the focus of a single mind. Together, their music drifts up and down the African continent, ranging from the relatively relaxed, repetitious groove-oriented music of West Africa to the occasionally blistering, speed-clapping, and Islam-tinged sound of Iberia. British double bassist Danny Thompson is a model of understated support throughout. Mali vocalists join the group on the anthemic "Mani Mani Kuru" and the quiet "Africa," while Ketama becomes downright sentimental for "A Mia Tia Marina."

Songhai 2
This follow up to Songhai, 1988's classic world beat album, fuses West African and Spanish Flamenco, featuring some of the most celebrated performers of the world music genre. Recorded once again in Madrid, this new collection features a more balanced partnership, intertwining a weave of African and Flamenco elements that is evident in both instrumentation and material. Guest musicians like Malian kora master Toumani Diabete, British bassist Danny Thompson, and Spain's Juan and Jose Miguel Carmona on guitar, help celebrate the common demoninator between these two cultures: a shared heritage as cultural outsider that transcends all barriers.
