Sorry to all the Van the Man fans who enjoyed his 2007 concert in Glastonbury, but VAN MORRISON / POLYDOR have removed these videos. Ah well - it was only a matter of time - I suppose.
Live recorded music and musings from the Essaouira 2007 Gnaoua and World Music Festival featuring artists like the Band of Gnawa, Baaba Maal, Ray Lema, Loy Erlich, Louis Bertignac, Maalem Abdelsam Alikane, Cheik Tidiane Seck, Hoba Hoba Spirit and many, many more.

When I started, this channel was audio-only, but since May 2008, I've mainly been posting videos. Music quality however is still my key criterion.,
Country:
United Kingdom
Music:
World music, especially Gnaoua, sub-Saharan music from Mali, Senegal, Congo etc, rock, jazz, blues and some classical, so the music at the Essaouira Gnaoua and World Music Festival hits several spots, simultaneously.

I have started a blog at http://daftnotstupid.blogspot.com to record my comments on the recent Essaouira 2007 Gnaoua and World Music Festival. My first posting talks about Maalem Abdeslam Alikane playing with Tyour Gnaoua and Ray Lema (Guitar, Keyboards Congo), Adellah El Miry (Violin Morocco), Soriba Kouyate (Kora Senegal) and Cyril Atef (Drums France Iran) at the Essaouira 2007 Gnaoua and World Music Festival in June 2007.

Whether you were there or not, why not take a look and add your views too?
