The first piece on the (7th) album Niafunké (1999) by Ali Farka Toure (1939-2006) is "Ali's Here". The title "Niafunké' is also the name of the village in Mali where Ali Farka Toure lived. The album is traditional for this desert area in Mali.
Adjo visited the village Niafunké on his way to Timbuktu on the 23rd of January 2005, when Ali was still alive, and was in Ali's café in Niafunké (as in this film). Niafunké is situated at the river Niger.
Additionally adjo found many Malinese records (cd's) in Morocco (Sep/Oct 2013), amongst others "Niafunké" in the town Essaouira at the Atlantic coast. This version was bought there on the 1st of October 2013.
