Today on my way home from work I was listening to NPR and they did a music review on the new CD out by Amadou & Miriam, Welcome to Mali.  We first heard about Amadou & Miriam during a previous music review on NPR back in 2005 or 2006, when they discussed their CD Dimanche a Bamako.  After listening to the music clips and hearing the story about the artists, we bought the first CD.  Then, maybe a year ago or so, while browsing the music selection at Best Buy, we purchased a second CD of theirs, Je Pense a Toi: The Best of Amadou & Miriam.  I’ve throughly enjoyed the 2 CDs we’ve purchased, so when NPR introduced me to their newest CD today, I made a mental note to myself to add the CD to my Amazon wishlist.   A transcript of the CD review and audio (available after 7pm EST) are available on NPR’s website.

These are all the albums I’ve gotten in the past 3 months, not including any children’s music.  I’ve listed them in from most excitement to least, but they’re all good.  However, I expected more from Morcheeba.  Let me know if you want sample any of them, I’ll tell you which tracks are the best.
