Damon Albarn's "Mali Music"

Just listened to this for the first time and it's a beautiful piece of music - Damon Albarn of Blur recorded a bunch of musicians in Mali and gave it a dub/trip-hop twist, and the results are pretty amazing. I know this has been out a while, but for those who slept on it (like I did), it's really worth examining. Partial proceeds from the album go to Oxfam, an organization that helps needy people in Mali...

Anyone else digging this?

Yes, got it when it came out last year. A lot of it is like a blueprint for the new Blur album, "Think Tank".
