Songhoy Blues - Soubour - Later... with Jools Holland - BBC

[@JackManEveryday]

Undoubtedly the happiest people on the planet

[@clappedoutmotor]

James Douglas I reckon I could have held that title when I saw them live recently

[@maureenfluffybuns9422]

I want to make love to them like a rabbit that would also make dem happy

[@jabeshbrighty1862]

That happiness came with a cost.. absolute respect 🧑‍🎤

[@ninowesselman2012]

I saw this band playing this song at a special session on Glastonbury. I immediately liked the groove. Great song!

[@seyi2040]

Same!

[@pdog2715]

I've decided it's not the beat, nor the funk. Neither is it the blues. It's the pulse. These guys just pump along like nobody else. Thickens the blood. Superb.

[@Istari_01]

Not often I hear music that sounds fresh and new. I'm just buzzin. Great performance, great music, great band.

[@jamesskingley5751]

My brothers from another mother....they are the best

[@bigjohno242]

[@iroscoe]

bigjohno242 Yes he's the business and there's not many who could pull of that hat either .

[@bigjohno242]

Well said Edward !

[@davidfernandezperez4852]

So contagious. It feels they're loving it

[@lonhillyer]

Well, the roots and origins of the blues were conceived in such places as Mali and other African countries. It should be of no surprise to no one. Cool ass vibe!

[@MarsLonsen]

origin of the blues is the American south. yes African-Americans were the ones to play it, but saying it originated in Africa is wrong.

[@markthompson1819]

I’d guess that given that slaves were being kidnapped from Africa and brought to the US right up until the civil war they’d have brought their musical traditions with them. There’s a massive crossover between this sound and North Mississippi Hill Country blues as exemplified by RL Burnside and Junior Kimbrough.

[@topgurl9313]

@@MarsLonsen What are you talking about?? The roots of Blues music are in Africa, because the Blues started with African slaves. They got their sound from their homeland. But of course it was not called 'the Blues' in Africa. Then Black Americans in the late 1800s, the descendants of slaves, developed these sounds to create what would be called the Blues.

[@lucreziaborgia5798]

Right! People drop their ears and they just play like any normal band playing any regular music.

[@markthompson1819]

Wow. That is so good. It reminds me of the North Mississippi Hill Country blues as exemplified by RL Burnside and Junior Kimbrough.
