Rail Band legacy
First of two programs devoted to the Malian guitarist Djelimady Tounkara -one of Africa's best.  Today we listen to Djelimady as leader and guitarist for Bamako's Rail Band, founded in 1970, a group which spawned other great artists including Salif Keita and Mory Kanté.  The Rail Band incorporated elements of Afro-Cuban music into the rich fabric of Manding musical traditions.  A future program will explore Djelimady's solo career and recent collaborations. ///  host: Andy Hosch
