They've Got More Than Drums!

Some (mostly) West African music that focuses more on the melodic side of things. Stings, voices, horns, idiophones, and the like (a few horns thrown in too). Tradional and folk mixed with blues, classic high life, and stuff like that. Chill, yet invigorating. Hope you enjoy!

Total run time: 1.2 hours

Artists are from Mali, Senegal, and Nigeria.

Ayub Ogada is from Kenya--one exception to my West Africa theme, but a beautiful song... Ry Cooder being the other.
