Voyageur

"Voyageur is an absolute delight ... Previously archived for no particular project, each track on Voyageur feels fresh and relevant. The simultaneous ease and intricacy Ali Farka Touré brought to his guitar playing throughout his career, a continued source of inspiration for musicians worldwide, rings out on every track ... If anyone is a match for Ali Farka Touré in terms of star power and sheer skill, of course, it's Oumou Sangaré, and her presence on three of Voyageur's nine tracks is unquestionably a high point on an album with no real lows ... Voyageur is as complete and wondrous an album as anything Ali Farka Touré put out during his lifetime, in no small part due to the work of his son. On the heels of last year's Ali, a collaboration with Khruangbin, Vieux Farka Touré is continuing to carry his father's torch and use it to shed light on the rich Ali archives that remain".

"I 17 år har vi måttet omtale Malis Ali Farka Touré i datid. Den elegante sanger og guitarist var manden, der satte det nordlige Malis musik på det globale musikkort ... Der er mange detaljer, men over det hele skinner en velsyngende Ali Farka Touré, som folder hele sin kunnen ud og får fans som undertegnede (...) til at savne ham helt vildt".

"Top of the world" - "A new album of nine unheard studio cuts from the Malian legend comes 17 years after his death, but slip on the first track 'Safari', and it feels like he and his music have never gone away ... For those who love his music, this is an unanticipated gift. Collected from his years of studio work and international touring, Voyageur's highlights are three scorching tracks with fellow Malian music legend, Oumou Sangaré".
