BBC startete in den 80ern mit tollen Bands aus Zimbabwe (Bhundu Boys, Four Brothers, Real Sounds of Africa), danach kam Ali Farka Toure aus Mali, und letztens die Sahara Rocker Tinariwen und Bombino.
Listened to the Bandcamp samples, was sold & immediately searched Soulseek. A few minutes later & here's his two albums @320 supposedly. I haven't even listened to them yet, so apologies if not what's advertised. Cheers!
First, thanks for all the fantastic posts, particularly Terakraft. The "African Guitar Legends" work now.
I apologize for posting all my stuff in "Mega" and not "Zippyshare". But it is a huge timesaver with my setup. I also apologize for posting most stuff in m4a/iTunes @256 format, but that's what I have.
Another great Tuareg band are Tinariwen from Algeria. They became first known in France and later very hip in the UK.

And now to the very best of the best of Saharan music...going back to 1982.
From Wikipedia: "...Around 1981, "Embryo's Dissidenten" were founded in India by Friedemann "Friedo" Josch (b 21 July 1952, Mainz, wind instruments, keyboards) and former Embryo band members Uwe "Uve" Müllrich (b 7 December 1947, Rügen, bass, oud, guitar, vocals) and Michael Wehmeyer (keyboards,piano). Still in 1981, Marlon Klein (b 13 December 1957, Herford, drums, perc, keyboards, vocals) replaced Wehmeyer, and the band renamed themselves to Dissidenten.[2][3] 1982/83, they founded their own record label Exil in Berlin.[4]
...
They then moved on to Morocco to record Sahara Elektrik in 1982 at the Palace of Abdesalam Akaaboune in Tangier with the help of friend Paul Bowles and local sha'abi band Lem Chaheb. The track "Fata Morgana" became a dance hit in Europe (especially Spain and Italy) and Canada, and the group toured worldwide.
In 1986 the Dissidenten moved to Spain, producing Life At The Pyramids and began to receive recognition in the US and UK..."

A word about these North African bands, ie. Bombino, Tamikrest, Terakaft, Tinariwen, and others like them: these people are Tuaregs. Like the Roma, they do not recognize nationality. They live in "the Sahel", the desert that covers parts of (from west to east) northern Senegal, southern Mauritania, central Mali, northern Burkina Faso, extreme south of Algeria, Niger, extreme north of Nigeria, central Chad, central and southern Sudan, and northern Eritrea.
If you want to dig deep into this music, visit http://sahelsounds.com/ and https://sahelsounds.bandcamp.com/ Listen and buy something; your money gets to the artist. And get yourself a copy of "Music From Saharan Cellphones"; there are two volumes. The sound is a little rough in spots, but it will probably be the most interesting thing you'll hear this year. IMHO the original cellphone albums are far superior to the later London remix.
