Musicians from around Africa had come for the Blues du Fleuve Festival, and quite a few stopped by our rented house over the weekend. The big draw, I'm sure, were the musicians staying with us: Tony on balafon, John and his electric guitar, and of course world-famous Massamba on tama drums. That's Massamba's cousin in the picture above playing a tama drum.
Visitors included musicians from Burkina Faso, the Congo, and other countries; they'd stop by, chat, have some tea, and jam a bit. It was a very relaxed, low-key atmosphere.
