Did you learn the riff by ear, or did you find a tab somewhere? I’ve always wanted to learn some Boubacar songs, but I’m terrible at playing by ear.

I think I’m almost done with the Mali blues course and am thinking about what I want to take next. I’ve been listening to a lot of Bembeya Jazz Orchestra from Guinea lately, which is apparently a blend of Mande and Afro-Cuban music. Any…

I’ve been working on the Takamba lesson for a few weeks. Probably my favorite one of the course so far.
