Format:Audio CD
Orchestra Baobab's smooth and sweet synthesis of traditional African and popular Caribbean styles produced one of the most distinctive sounds to come out of West Africa. Mellow and funky brass grooves and the silkiest of guitar lines combine to give the flavours of salsa, rumba and Senegalese rhythms.

Baobab are a fantastic band, but this re-issue of a re-issue really shows how marketing muscle makes a difference, even in the perceived "backwater" of World Music. I'm not saying that this is a bad record - far from it, it's brilliant, but there are certainly two other equally good recordings ("Bamba" and "On Verra Ca") which languish in a few specialist shops, simply because they do not have the Buena Vista Social Club dollars to promote them. This may sound negative - I don't mean it to be; but if you search out the other CDs I've mentioned (as well as buying this one) you will thank me for it. The title track of "Bamba" has a delicious "saudade" which surpasses anything on this collection - and for that matter, any other single track in the whole Senegalese repertoire.

Utterly fabulous. Since this arrived, I've listened to it at least three or four times, and keep going back to it. It sounds better each time.

An all-time great....tell everyone!
I'm delighted to see reissued on CD. I have this on vinyl but played it to death, and the last time I searched for it, it was only available in the US on import (from where?). Read more
