Ali Farka Touré, a guitarist and vocalist from the Timbuktu region, is widely regarded for blending traditional Malian music with blues influences to create a distinctive, soulful sound. Toumani Diabaté, a master kora player from a long lineage of griots, brings crystalline harp-like textures and deep traditional knowledge to every performance. Together their collaboration bridges generations and traditions, offering music that is both deeply rooted and universally resonant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the Heart of the Moon documents intimate duets recorded in Bamako using a mobile studio on the banks of the Niger River. The album features spare, acoustic arrangements where guitar, kora and subtle percussion interweave to highlight melodic conversation and improvisation. Guest musicians add tasteful touches without overshadowing the central interplay between Touré and Diabaté. The result is a warm, contemplative recording that emphasises nuance, rhythm and the melodic heritage of Mali.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePersonnel: Ali Farka Touré - guitar, vocal (1,7); Toumani Diabaté - kora.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdditional musicians: Ry Cooder - piano (3,7), guitar (12); Sekou Kanté - bass guitar (7,8,9); Orlando \"Cachaito\" López - bass (11,12); Joachim Cooder - percussion (5,5,11); Olalekan Babalola - percussion (4,11); James Thompson - shaker (5).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduced by Nick Gold.
