[Afropop] It's been some 10 years since Senegalese maestro extraordinaire Cheikh Lô has released an album of new songs. And for this one, he's pulled out all the stops. Maame (pronounced "mahm") is a celebration of Lô's 50-year anniversary in music. You can hear Banning Eyre's audio review of the album here. Meanwhile, Banning reached Lô by Zoom in Dakar as he was rolling out the new album in a series of concerts there. Here's their conversation, lightly edited for clarity. Thanks to Pavel Smid
