I saw all the negative comments on this and thought I was in for something bizarre, but I quite like it.

Peter Gabriel & Youssou N'Dour - "Biko" Live
"Once the flame begins to catch...the wind will blow it higher...
For me it was Athens, October 3rd 1989....
with Peter,Youssou, Sting, Tracy, George and Bruce...
Once the flame begins to catch...the wind will blow it higher... " |

All of this negative stuff about this cat's vocals coming from western "critics" is a joke.

Have enjoyed Youssou N'Dour for 20 years ..... got turned onto him when visiting The Gambia. Great beat, I can picture the African dancers in my mind :)

I concur. Youssou ruins all his music the second he opens his mouth. |
