Seminal Grammy-award winning album now available as limited edition 2LP on 180 gram vinyl. 'Talking Timbuktu' is a groundbreaking record that vividly illustrates the Africa-Blues connection in real time. Ali Farka Toure, one of Mali's leading singer-guitarists, has a trance-like, bluesy style that, although deeply rooted in Malian tradition, bears astonishing similarity to that of John Lee Hooker or even Canned Heat. It's a mono-chordal vamp, with repetitive song lines cut with shards of blistering solo runs that shimmer like a desert mirage. Toure may be conversant with some blues artists, but it is unlikely that artists like Hooker or Robert Pete Williams ever heard these Malian roots, which makes the connection so uncanny. Ry Cooder, well versed in domestic and world guitar styles, is the perfect counterpoint in these extended songs / jams, his sinewy slide guitar intertwining with his partner's in a super world summit without barriers or borders.LP - 180 Gram Double Vinyl with Bonus Track and Download.

More pronouns than I care for in a children’s book.
Format: Paperback
Not impressed. Gender nonsense marketed to children. Chapter one seeemed normal, chapter two is where the nonsense starts.

Don’t buy
Format: Paperback
Children’s books have no place for pushing sexual ideology with a controversial content narrative. This author should be banned.

Great book, funny and enjoyable
Format: Hardcover
My 8 yo son asked us to purchase this book after Mr. Dan Santat visited his school. He loved this book, so much so that he has now read it 2 times. While he was reading, I would catch him giggling and smiling the whole time. He talks about Sashimi all the time and is looking forward to the next book.
