Brothers in Bamako

Interpreter: Habib Koite - Eric Bibb
Label: Contre Jour
Location: Mali/USA

An African and an African-American join forces to explore their common heritage. Guitars, banjos and ukuleles are the vehicles for the trip, and the pair create a convincing synthesis, as captured on their take of the Dylan song 'Blowin' in the Wind'.
