When I set up to record this episode about Tuareg guitar master Bombino with Deer Tick’s drummer / co-songwriter Dennis Ryan, we had no idea that our conversation about the master Nigerian musician who’d done some of his best work in dried-out Nigerian riverbeds was, ironically, to take place during an actual flood this past summer while in Vermont.   An actual, honest-to-God natural disaster.   In this episode, you’ll learn about: The 3 guitarists whose styles Bombino soaked up in lieu of learning in a more traditional way; And whether or not I made it out of the flood alive.
