Etats de l’Afrique

Posted in aural pleasures by pea on May 24th, 2008

I made a compilation of African music from the 60s and 70s. Stretching from Mali to Ethiopia, more or less along that latitude. The styles vary from really funky to really bluesy. The cover is a photo by the excellent Malick Sidibe.
