Untitled[edit]

What does "Toured across the country" mean? i am guessing it means the US, but I first was confuded and thought it was Mali. If nobody explains this, I will change this, though I don't see why the US would be mentioned in this article.76.16.172.43 01:13, 22 October 2006 (UTC)Hicham.Vanborm[reply]

[edit]

As per above removed "the country" as is non specific and unreferenced, hope someone can fill this in again and reference the source —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.180.237.129 (talk) 22:45, 6 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Tuning[edit]

i think it would be useful to actually give some examples of Koite's tuning by string as that is what distinguishes his sound to some extent. Unfortunately i cant help. --Markbenjamin (talk) 02:48, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

not neutral[edit]

Language in this article is not neutral, reads like a professional bio, e.g. "The sound of the country, its rich and diversified musical traditions and its instruments (ngoni, flute, kora, doun doun ...) permeate the twelve titles that make up this superb project. With more than 400,000 albums sold, more than 1,700 concerts around the world, Habib has built, step by step, an exemplary career, with always a foot firmly rooted in its culture" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.44.99.95 (talk) 01:59, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
