You got this? Cus if not, you need it. Definitely on my top ten list from 07, probably my all time favorite Sublime Frequencies release. (thats obviously subject to change due to the high volume of top jams that come out of that label) Impossible to find now, or, if you do find it forget about paying a reasonable price. Hope you dig..pass it on.
From Sublime Frequencies
“Group Inerane is the now sound of the Tuareg Guitar Revolution sweeping across the Sahara Desert and inspired by the rebel musicians that started this music as a political weapon used to communicate from the Libyan Refugee camps in the 1980s and 1990s. Spearheaded by the enigmatic guitar hero Bibi Ahmed, Group Inerane has been together for several years and carries the rich tradition of Tamachek guitar songs for another generation. These ten tracks are a combination of amplified roots rock, blues, and folk in the local Tuareg styles at times entering into full-on electric guitar psychedelia. This music is performed with two electric guitars, a drum kit and a chorus of vocalists. The recordings were captured live in the city of Agadez in the Republic of Niger. Group Inerane was also featured in the Sublime Frequencies DVD “Niger: Magic and Ecstasy in the Sahel”. Recorded by Hisham Mayet, this is the second Sublime Frequencies Vinyl Release. 180 gram vinyl, full-color gatefold jacket, and limited one-time pressing of 1000 copies.”
group inerane is awesome. group doueh is better. someone needs to put on a festival in the US and fly them all over.
this record rules, thanks for putting up mp3s of it. i had to do a top five of ’07 and this was on there.
enjoying the blog, btw. nice job!
