Product Description
fRoots, December 2002
Suuf is the new project from multi-instrumentalist and former Real World employee Simon Sleath. It features musicians he met up with whilst living in Senegal (including members of Super Diamano and Les Frères Guissé), plus like-minded Brits such as Afro-blues guitar hero Justin Adams. The result is a very well-crafted disc, blending acoustic and electric West African styles with touches of jazz, reggae and even some classical piano.
There is a warm understated quality at work, so that none of the musical combinations at play sound forced. There's some fine impassioned singing here too and with three vocalists involved, a good deal of variety. Particularly impressive are "Xarit", with its mix of Senegalese instrumentation and the classical piano of the aptly-named "Sarah Class", and the sparse, dubby, "Alla Yo". It's good to hear such enjoyable roots music amongst the first batch of releases on the Beeb's new Late Junction label. --Jamie Renton
