I’ll be the first to admit that Brazilian music has always been somewhat of a blind spot for me. Struggled to find a way in, even though amazing things await discovery; or so I’m told.

Generally I’m not one for 45s… but even my arm can be twisted when offered a box full of Enna Sham, Voix de Liban, Cairophon, Casaphon, Brotherphone… etc.
Everything I have played so far has been excellent. I will try and search out some clips and build the thread.

Ali Farka Touré. Green. Although I think this may have originally just been self-titled and referred to as Green to differentiate from other self-titled records. I could be wrong. Either way, an extraordinary album of beautiful music.
