Bamba

CD-Charts > Music > African
by: Orchestre Baobab

Release Date October 01, 1999
Before I bought this, I already owned "Pirates' Choice" and "Specialist in All Styles", both of which I loved. So I eagerly awaited Amazon's delivery of this CD and I haven't been at all disappointed - it seems that this band have never released a weak song in their entire repertoire.

This CD is a combination of the two albums, "Mouhamadou Bamba" (1980) and "Sibou Odia" (1981), so you get a full 72 minutes of Artisso, Cissokho, Seck et al doing their magical stuff.

For those unfamiliar with the band, they are a joyous blend of the kind of Cuban sound found on Buena Vista Social Club and West African Wolof music and the resultant mix is a delight to the ear.

Barthelemy Artisso has to be one of the finest guitarists ... Read More:

Ya Pili...

CD-Charts > Music > African
by: Khadja Nin

Release Date January 17, 2000
Fantastic - I first heard this in Tanzania, and had to buy a copy as soon as I got home. The lyrics are beautiful even if you don't understand Swahili, and this should in no way put you off. I don't know anyone who hasn't liked this, whatever their musical taste. Definitely worth it.

The Other Side

CD-Charts > Music > African
by: Lucky Dube

Release Date October 13, 2003
Lucky Dube must be the African equivalent of Bob Marley. This is high praise from a Bob Marley Fan. This is a laid back album of reggae music with distinctive African undertones. Wonderful lyrics especially for those of us with family and children. Equally good to have as background music at a party or to listen to quietly and enjoy. Some of the best tracks are The Other Side, Cool Down and Family Ties, while my children (under 10 years old) just love Ding Ding....Would highly recommend this to anyone who loves reggae and African music.
