I was thrilled to hear an unfamiliar song by Malian pop queen Oumou Sangare on Radio France the other night. But I was annoyed to find out that the song is tacked on to a double-CD best of anthology! Of course this is an old money-making ploy, but usually anthologies have only one or two new tracks, a temptation which I've been able to resist so far. (This is why I still don't have a copy of Steely Dan's "FM".) The Sangare best of, however, has 8 new songs. Decisions, decisions...
