But after you sprinkle it with a bit of Salif Keita you realise that it's actually pretty damn tasty!" ~ George Smillie "Hooooo! I love this CD you give me! This is the band you need. Very nice stuff there, you can hear everything - Celtic and Malian and lots of movement of music. Respect you all. And the singer he has very original lovely feelings, good spirits. Well done. I like what you are doing there -hugs!" ~ Juldeh Camara (Gambian Fula jali of Real World recording artists JuJu, formerly of Ifang Bondi, singer, nyanyeru player, composer, BBC and Songlines World Music Award winner, currently a member of Robert Plant's Sensational Space Shifters). |
