iTunes New Music Tuesday: Tracks In The Sand


If you're an iTunes customer, you may have received an email in your inbox yesterday from Apple to announce that the (RED) + Vanity Fair's new album Tracks In The Sand is available on iTunes, with 100% of the sales price going to the Global Fund, to fight AIDS in Africa.

Inspired by "Showtime in the Sahara," Tom Freston's article in this month's Vanity Fair Africa issue about traveling to an African music festival in Timbuktu, (RED) asked Youssou N'Dour to curate this compilation of 15 of the best recordings by West African artists, including Salif Keita, Ali Farka Touré, Baaba Maal, Oumou Sangare, Djelimady Tounkara, and Orchestra Baobab. Find out more at the Tracks In The Sand iTunes page.

Click here to see the newsletter now, if you didn't get it yesterday.

And buy your copy of Tracks In The Sand on iTunes now, with this easy link: JOINRED.COM/TRACKS

Let us know what you think of the album by leaving your feedback on the iTunes page of the album.

Thanks,
bn

Im posting on the whole (BLOG) RED thing. I remember when that first came out, and I remember seeing Oprah winfrey having a show on her buying EVERYTHING that has the color RED on it. Well first things first, ITS MY FAVORITE COLOR! and another episode of oprah winfrey shows her buying every person in her audience a BRAND NEW SATURN CAR! SHES THE BEST!
