Notes

111MHz: ‘Takoba (Injustice Version).’ Last May, the Nigerian guitarist and singer Mdou Moctar released Funeral for Justice, but never one to rest, he and his power trio have reworked all the songs on that record for acoustic and traditional instruments, which they’ve titled Tears of Injustice. It’s like “Mdou Moctar Unplugged,” and it’s a joy—not least if you like the Tuareg-style theatrics they’re known for.
