// Ali Farka Touré
Ali Farka Touré sang the universality of traditional Malian music in eleven different languages, including Peul, Songhai, Bambara and others. "For some people," he explains, "Timbuktu is a place at the end of nowhere. But that's not true, I'm from Timbuktu, and I can tell you that it's right in the center of the world." Born in the small village of Kanau in 1939, he died of cancer on March 7th 2006. Four months later World Circuit brought out his most accomplished album in a fabulous career, Savane.
