    please join http://www.lastfm.it/group/lastfm+is+unfair The decision to close radios to all countries except usa, uk and germany is completely unfair and is the way lastfm choose to dig their own graves: there will be a massive exodus of users. We want a better way to solve the problem of money, maybe more adsense, limit a quantity of songs per day, something. We want an explanation, we want to be lastfm users with the same rights around the world This group is not for insult, blame or curse. Is just to talk politely about this decission of the lastfm crew. Did we miss the answer for this often questioned “Why are these three countries excluded?” to radio last.fm? what makes Germans, British and Americans different to the rest of the world??? the record-company bibiafrica, dealing with worldmusic is giving respect to other people & cultures – we would definately like to get a clear answer why you would like to make this difference!!! we want a free & fair last.fm for everybody!!

    Somewhere at the juncture of New Age, World Music, Devotional, and sheer musical mastery lies a font of profound wonderment and evergreen spirit... Experience Deep Listening. Includes a large selection of Sufi and Turkish music!

    Besides this excellent blues group, there's another kid in town. Please be welcome to join the Mississippi Hill Country Blues group on Last.fm. It pays tribute to all great musicians from the past and the present that play Mississippi Hill Country blues.

    Best African blues comes from Mali. First band i recommend is definitely Tinariwen (Touareg roots music mixed with blues). Other must-listen artists are Habib Koité, Ali Farka Touré and Boubacar Traoré

    my favorite is boubacar traore. more further i love habib koite (good music from mali, too), rokia traore, lobi traore, toumani diabate (good instrumental kora music), tinariwen, ballake sissoko, cheikh lô, ismaël lô. good desert music. enjoy it.

    For recommendations, just look at the charts and go listen to what you don't know yet: Tinariwen, Boubacar Traoré, Amadou & Mariam, Rokia Traoré, Salif Keita... It's not all desert blues though...

    Hi guys, just joined, I don't have much African music at all, please recommend some stuff to me (preferably not too obscure or hard to get).
