Free Music Notes for Red & Green

Free Music Review: Hypnotic
Hit: 5 Stars

If you like Ali Farka Toure, you're going to love this treat. This is the only album of his I finished with, then played again, both discs. For a 'listening experience' I can't recommend any other album of his more highly.

Red & Green Poster

Malian superstar Ali Farka Toure is often described as a bluesman. Although he was certainly inspired by the recordings of John Lee Hooker, he was also saturated from birth in centuries-old parallel traditions that had evolved in his homeland. Incontestably one of the world's greatest guitarists, Toure's implacable sense of rhythm is equaled by an intuitive yet extroverted grasp of modal melody. As he is now semi-retired, the reissue of these long out-of-print recordings is a special cause for celebration. Known only by the color of their album sleeves, Red and Green were the final two of seven vinyl LPs released by the French Sonodisc label between 1975 and 1988. Both are uncompromisingly acoustic; Toure?s wailing, moaning voice and picking are supported only by backing vocals, calabash (shaker) or ngoni (a four-string guitar.) But these simple forces offer oblique insights into the early development of an increasingly private, ever-more-elusive genius. --Christina Roden
This double disc collects long sought-after, essential vintage recordings from one of West Africa's most influential artists. Fans of Malian guitar Ali Farka Toure can hear these previously vinyl-only classic tracks, out of print form ore than a decade, that first ignited in the artist dubbed "the John Lee Hooker of Africa."
