Amadou and Mariam met as teenagers at a school for the blind in Bamako, Mali. -It wasn-t exactly -love at first sight-, but it certainly was a propitious meeting, both musically and romantically. -Their new cd, Dimanche - Bamako, produced by the great Manu Chao, has sold almost a million copies in France, and is a hot seller for Nonesuch here in the States.<IMG ALIGN=left SRC=/gallery/images/cl050911Amadou_and_Mariama.jpg border=0 space=4>
