Allo Bamako – Malian Dance Music Of The 1970s

Add to Cart$11.99 ... CD
List Price: 16.98
CD (Item 456174) Oriki (France), 1970s — Condition: New Copy

Incredible grooves from the Malian scene of the 70s – all long tracks that spin out with amazing rhythms and a great undercurrent of funk! There's a flowing, spun-out quality to most of these numbers – as percussion builds along with guitar and kora, in ways that create a hypnotic, evocative groove that would be great enough on its own – but which is then also topped with some even more beautiful vocals! Despite the difference of language, there's a really universal appeal to these tunes – a border-crossing brilliance that grabs us from the very first note – and which hangs on throughout, in an amazing journey in sound. CD features 8 titles that include "Djiguiya", "Marigoundo", "Ma Awaba", "Wasso", "Nama", "Yobalema", and "Affair Social".  © 1996-2010, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
