  • Thats real good handmade musik !!!! I love people who are content with their life, like this man.

  • So beautiful !! I lived in Mali as a child/teen from 1999-2003 because of my dads work but have never been back since ;( his music brings back so many memories it brought tears to my eyes =)

    I still remember a live concert of the great Ali Farka Touré in Bamako, Mali and although I was too young to fully understand and appreciate his music it will always remain a one in a lifetime childhood memory to me!

    So great to see that his son has inherited his talent!!

  • @doubledgamze I don't know how content Vieux is, but his music helps ME be more content with MY life.

  • @doubledgamze yes but i don't think u got the point, just close ur eyes nd listen, it's not what u think about "handmade music, it's a deeper frequency nd don't u think it's easy to follow the pace ^_^

  • As his father Ali was the King of the desert blues guitar, so Vieux is the Prince.

  • adoooooooorabe le visage éervellé du gamin à la fin!!! tout simplement pure moment beauté musicale

  • @Rebelconformist82 As well, his playing is very sloppy. But I guess that goes along with the style(?), eh?

  • @Rebelconformist82 Well, fuck you very much...You obviously are unaware of the fact that this guy does not live in a vacuum - and that his playing is completely derivative. My comment stands.

  • @beeroosterm Its completely the blues...you obviously wouldnt know the blues if it came and slapped you in the face with a wet fish!

  • @beeroosterm Yes, Irish. You think because he's a black guy his influences cannot run to the Irish like the rest of us?

  • @beeroosterm irish ? kakakakakaka
