Sounds like a bunch of cacs in the audience... Only a matter of time before white people claim that they "invented" this too.

I can't listen to Guinean music.

They bring back bad memories. Superb work though.

edit: they look like Tauregs from Mali. Although Tauregs have sharper features than them.

So I guess they were right when they said that Africans brought the harp to Europe and that Europeans couldn't play it that good cuz they didnt have finesse, so they layed it down, put it in a box and added some keys and called it a Piano...this video proves it..

The Kora is an amazing instrument. Music from the Sahel region of Africa is some of the best ever no question.

So beautiful...I felt like the music was surrounding my head, almost like I was engulfed by it. I know that probably sounds crazy, but that's the way I felt .
