Ali Farka Touré with Ry Cooder - Talking Timbuktu

A Grammy-winner for a reason, this wasn't available on vinyl for a long time. And it's a really beautiful recording of the Malian desert blues player, with Cooder playing along with a few known players (eg Jim Keltner) and a whole lot of African masters.

Anyway, no doubt you've heard it. And if by some chance you haven't...you really should.
