Vieux's self-titled solo debut, released in 2005 by Modiba Productions, introduced him to the world and symbolically passed the torch from his legendary father, Ali. While Ali was known as a bluesman of the desert, Vieux has established himself as the Hendrix of the Sahara. If people listened to his debut due to his father's reputation, people listened to his sophomore follow-up, Fondo, due the its widespread critical acclaim. VFT Live only builds on that progression, further establishing him as an African guitar hero.
