Malian music is arguably deeper, more sophisticated and lyrical than any other form of African music. Those of us deeply entranced by Malian culture, and, in particular, the immense hypnotic beauty of Malian music, have put together a selection of songs from across the country.

CD and LP include a 24 page booklet on Malian Music written by Florent Mazzoleni.

Vinyl LP includes MP3 download.
