Vieux Farka Touré brought the exotic sounds of north-western Africa and World music to the Hollywood Theatre in a stunning virtuoso show.
He swops acoustic guitar for electric guitar for most of the set and percussionist, Mamadou Kone, moves onto a drum kit, but Vieux is a masterful performer, smiling, relaxed and having fun.
Having been a massive fan of Ali Farka Toure, Vieux’s late father, and seeing Vieux perform at the 2010 Fifa World Cup Opening Ceremony in South Africa, he has been on top of my list of musicians that I have wanted to see for a while.
A capacity crowd was treated to a display of brilliant playing and real humour from Toure and his supporting musicians and by the end the entire place was on its feet dancing with joy.
