Mali's blind duo Amadou and Mariam

Guitarist and singer Amadou Bagayoko died earlier this year, just before the release of the final album he recorded with his wife Mariam Doumbia, "L'Amour a la Folie" (crazy love). Host Marco Werman takes a listen to the title track and then takes us back to perhaps a more relevant song for Mali these days as it faces a serious terrorist threat, their 2004 hit, "Politic Amagni 'La Politique, C'est Pas Bon'" (politics isn't good).
