michaelA small #kora I saw at the fleamarket in #Dusseldorf in Feb. Much smaller than the ones you see people play on youtube, so I'm wondering if the small versions are real instruments or just made as souvenirs for tourists visiting #WestAfrica. Any clues? I've seen at least three of this size in recent years, bought one of them, but haven't set it up yet. https://www.flickr.com/photos/michaelgrr/55122349337/in/dateposted-public/ #musicalInstrument

DOG Custom GuitarsHeute ein sehr interessantes Instrument auf der Setup-Station.
Das ist eine westafrikanische Kora, aus Gambia. Das traditionelle Instrument der Griots oder Jalis (Sänger und Geschichtenerzähler). Gibt es seit hunderten Jahren, das Einzige, was sich verändert hat, sind die Nylonsaiten. Früher waren das Darmsaiten.
Sehr schöner Sound, irgendwas zwischen Harfe und Laute, aber sehr eigenständig.

The prompt is #Bee - at least we think it be!
Taj Mahal with Toumani Diabaté and Ramata Diakité, “Queen Bee” from “One World, Many Cultures” (1999)
“One World, Many Cultures” was a compilation put out by Putumayo World Music, a New York label founded in the 90s when ‘world music,’ music from indigenous cultures or ethic traditions outside of the western, English speaking world, became a concept and dare I say it, a fad. That doesn’t mean the music isn’t great, and the label continues to this day.
Taj Mahal is (Is! He’s still with us!) an old school blues musician. While I think of him with just his voice and his acoustic guitar, he’s performed and recorded with backing bands and done many collaborations.
One of those collaborations is here on this somewhat contrived collection of artists from ‘authentic’ traditions but with some visibility in Western pop culture and lesser-known musicians from traditions spanning the globe. “Queen Bee” is a tune from Taj Mahal’s 1978 album “Evolution (The Most Recent).” Here with Malian musicians kora player Toumani Diabaté and vocalist Ramata Diakité, both now sadly departed, it becomes more delicate, even fragile.
