Zook Beat, CD review: Legends of African Music Reunite >>
After 14 years of silence, Bembeya Jazz comes back with a grand recording. The authenticity, vitality and spirit of this legendary African dance band is intact and this release proves it beautifully. The songs, sung in their country's Manding, Fulani, Konkianke, and Kono languages, talk about their culture and history. For those unfamiliar with Bembeya Jazz, the music is a mix of unique blends of Guinean Mandingo traditional music with Cuban and Congolese grooves. A powerful and dizzying mix, sure to get anyone shakin' and dancin' 06/14/03 >> go there
