Amassakoul features songs from Ibrahim Ag Alhabib, Abdallah Ag Alhousseyni, Touhami Ag Alhassane Tinariwen are Tuaregs, children of a nomadic Berber tribe who have roamed the Saharan desert for thousands of years. Over recent centuries, colonialism has seen the Tuareg's ancestral territory partitioned into distinct countries - Mali, Algeria, Libya, Niger. This drawing of borders has turned the Tuareg into ishumar, a displaced people in search of a homeland lost to them. Tinariwen's music ' a blend of West African traditional music and electrified rock'n'roll ' speaks directly to this feeling of longing: a sound that critics have called 'desert blues'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wedge","offers":[{"title":"New \/ CD \/ Amassakoul Wedge","offer_id":49001156608308,"sku":"WEDE221.2","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/7436\/1652\/files\/4067300-2832309.jpg?v=1784782787","url":"https:\/\/www.fye.com\/products\/tinariwen-amassakoul_aec-wede221-2","provider":"FYE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
