They first met in London in 1992 while both were touring Europe. It was agreed that they should ‘try something together’. This ‘something’ became ‘Talking Timbuktu’, a Grammy award-winning classic album. In September ‘93 Toure was set to play a string of dates in the States and a week was set aside for recording his new album. Cooder was to play on a couple of tracks. A few hours’ rehearsal at Cooder’s Santa Monica home hinted at inspiring possibilities. The Malian guitarist’s next three Californian dates all featured Cooder as special guest. The recording followed a week later by which time Cooder had agreed to produce the entire album and play on every track. The whole album, recorded in three days, is now available on vinyl with an additional previously unreleased track. “A triumph.” The Sunday Times “A tour de force. The album constitutes an instant member of the miniscule list of truly interesting collaborations between African and American musicians.” The Independent Original release had record breaking run at #1 in US World Music Charts (31 Weeks) Now available on 180g vinyl with previously un-released track.
