Boubacar Traoré is one of the great veteran exponents of the African blues, a guitarist, singer and songwriter with a long, and sometimes pained history. He was known as Kar Kar because he was also a footballer. His easy going, gently rhythmic playing is backed by n'goni, calabash and balafon, with outstanding contributions from the French harmonica player Vincent Bucher. His thoughtful, soulful voice against an acoustic guitar style that mixes blues riffs with west African influences. He may be in his late 60s, but he's still one of Mali's finest musicians.
