While I like V.F. Toure, this brings to mind a Malian Take 5.

"Rachel" (hard hard h, as in Bach, the German pronunciation, but even harder) is from the same root as is Rachel's, as in Jacob and Rachel from the Bible. In modern Hebrew, the infinitive "to rachel" means to gossip.

I absolutely LOVE world music of almost all kinds, but this is WAY less than the sum of its parts. It ends up being neither fish nor fowl and dilutes the mastery of the individuals. |

I have yet to hear such "collaboration recording" which is more than barely an exploitation of couple of short phrases both musicians feel confident about. Instead of unifying whole two different worlds together, we usually get a stripped-down subset of the two languages, marginally improved by good production. This is not an exception. 4/10

Shaken_Bake wrote:I heard about these recordings recently on NPR and found their website: "Israeli superstar Idan Raichel and Malian guitar virtuoso Vieux Farka Touré first met at an airport in Germany in 2008 while both were on tour. From this chance encounter an artistic kinship was born, culminating in an unscripted recording session that took place one afternoon in November 2010 in a small Tel Aviv studio. Joined by Israeli bassist Yossi Fine and Malian calabash player Souleymane Kane, Idan and Vieux improvised a masterful selection of songs that capture the unbridled creativity and inspired collaboration of these four brilliant musicians. The Touré-Raichel Collective was formed and the songs they recorded are the foundation of the album The Tel Aviv Session."
How cool is this?! Cool-issimo - thanks for digging this up. |

Really nice recording- very lively, well balanced, nice sense of the acoustic space. Musically take it or leave it but I like what the're doing. One question- When does Ry Cooder plan on jamming with them?
