music of Youssou N'Dour

Join me on Africa O-Yé! for two hours of music from the Senegalese artist Youssou N'Dour. The first hour will focus on his early work with Etoile de Dakar in the late 1970s and early '80s. Then we'll hear selections from N'Dour's long solo career, including his Sufi music collaboration with the Egyptian Fathy Salama Orchestra.
