That was my first physical trip, but spiritually I was already there before I went. It reminded me of my father's words. He always used to say that there is nothing new under the sun. It only confirmed what I had been told for a long time, that mother Africa has made great contributions to the world and particularly to music. Our ancestors brought this music with them despite the fact that they came in chains.
African music is as old as Africa.
You see, the whole concept of music came out of Africa. If you take out the African elements, you don't have anything. So this is what I discovered. I always read about your African Rhythms club in Morocco. But I never really hear what it was, whether there was live music or who was playing there.
