if fusion is allowed to count i also LOVED the Ali Farka Toure and Ry Cooder albums, Talking Timbuktu particularly.

and in a similar verin, Kulanjan, the duet album with toumani diabate and taj mahal was utterly fucking sublime
and i also have a bit of time for Morrocan Roll/Desert Blues/North African fusion/whatever you call it.
