Oumou Sangaré's favourite albums - Alicia Keys, Marley, Touré...

Malian musician Oumou Sangaré, the "Songbird of Wassoulou music" made a list of her 13 favourite albums for the Quietus. It's a list made mostly of relatively unknown African music, and interesting, worth checking out, and some well known names. It goes from Miriam Makeba ("exemplary, a woman fighting to change things that were unjust in society") and Mangala Camara ("greatest voice in Malian music"), to Ali Farka Touré ("revolutionised Malian music"), Bob Marley ("a phenomenon"), Alicia Keys ("love her voice, her mastery of music") and herself ("my voice can go to other places").
