notes

Recorded at Radio Mali Studios, Bamako, in the early eighties.

Compilation of 2 legendary albums from 1984 and 1988 both simply called Ali Farka Toure. Because there was very little further information on them they were best known for the colour of their sleeves, the Red Album and the Green Album. In a cardboard slipcase with booklet.
