Rainy days are perfect for ballads. One of my favorites is Abdullah Ibrahim's The Wedding, the version from the outstanding album African Marketplace because it features Carlos Wall leading the melody on alto.

Nighttime music. One of my favorite records of all time is African Marketplace, a 1979 release by the great composer and pianist Abdullah Ibrahim. There are later releases also featuring his tune The Wedding, but this one featuring Carlos Ward on alto is by far my favorite. Relax and listen...
