| | Ravi African Kora: Journeys Of The Sunwalker CD Ravi Discography of CDs
A cross between the many strings and treble gentility of a Celtic harp and the drone strings and percussive quality of an African banjo, the kora is an instrument native to Western Africa. Ravi has long been one of the elusive instrument's masters, and AFRICAN KORA: JOURNEYS OF THE SUNWALKER finds him and his kora delicately enthralling on this disc's 14 tracks. Most are traditional, a handful were written by Ravi, but all of the songs on AFRICAN KORA reveal a decidedly complex, layered, and gorgeous alternative to stricter Western musical structures. A must for fans not only of world styles but of adventurous, impeccably played music as well.
Recorded at Orisha Studios, London, England in January 1999. Includes liner notes by Ravi.

African Kora: Journeys Of The Sunwalker CD music
$12.49
The strong and powerful influence of African music is hard to miss on this CD, which illustrates the rich cultural heritage of blacks in Bahia and Northeastern Brazil (a region that has produced many musical greats). Legends like Tito Puente, Tito Rodriguez, and Machito were on the scene, so aspiring young salseros assumed they had no choice but to give 200 percent. The percussionist and his longtime partner Andy Gonzales bring that unwavering work ethic to On the Move! (Muevete!), an outstanding live date recorded at Bimbo's 365 Club in San Francisco. When a 65-year-old Oquendo and his band Libre tear into Bobby Capo's familiar cha-cha "Piel Canela" and infectious originals like "No Cuentes," "Chaquilla Ideal," "Oquendo Y Libre" (a celebration of ...

My fav’s so far are tracks 1,8,9, and 11.Good work, my friend, keep it up!!Gary MillerLoveland, COYour CD is totally awesome! I just love it.

I haven't taken it out of my car CD player ever since!Thomas LuleyGilbert, AZI got the CDs in the mail on Saturday. I couldn't believe I got them so fast! Thanks! I've been listening to the CD over the weekend and on the way to work today. I think it's great. A lot of the songs I have heard before during the services at Searchlight. It seemed like "Never Be Enough" is a much edgier version on the CD than when I've heard it at church. I love it! I also really liked the kids singing on "Trust". That is really sweet.Johnna IantornoAnaheim, CAHi Kris. I love the CD it is absolutely fabulous!
