: Release Notes: \/ , \/ ,
' '
,: Three years in the making, Orchestra BaobabÆs Tribute to Ndiouga :,
: Dieng simmers with the same gorgeous blend of Cuban and West :
:' African rhythms as 2007Æs Made in Dakarùbut a lot has changed ':
,: for the Orchestra in the last decade. For one, Togo guitarist :,
: and Baobab co-founder BarthΘlΘmy Attisso left the band to :
:' concentrate on his law practiceùthe kora of his ':
,: not-quite-replacement, Abdoulaye Cissoko, can be heard cascading :,
: through the deliciously syncopated saxophones and percussion of :
:' opening track ôFoulu,ö and throughout the rest of the album. ':
,: And while titular singer Ndiouga Dieng, who was with the band :,
: nearly since its 1970 inception, has passed away; his son Alpha :
:' Dieng is on hand for this release, providing similarly ':
,: rough-hewn, Wolof-language vocals. :,
: :
:' BaobabÆs signature sound reflects music that has made its way ':
,: from Africa to Cuba and back again. That transit informs tracks :,
: like ôMagnokouto,ö which grooves smoothly along to an :
:' understated clave, with guest vocalist Cheikh Lo singing in ':
,: Wolof lines like, ôI have bought a Coke for you/ I have bought a :,
: car/ I have bought Fanta for you.ö BaobabÆs material also :
:' strongly reflects the Casamance background of co-founding ':
,: singer Balla SidibΘ, who weaves his voice through guitar and :,
: kora lines in ôMariama,ö a folk song about a fisherman and rich :
:' trader who compete for the same woman. And CissokoÆs kora gives ':
,: the group a more ôAfricanö folk sound, to its benefit. :,
: :
:' Orchestra BaobabÆs first iteration ended in the late Æ80s, when ':
,: the new and harder mbalax style played by Youssou NÆdour and his :,
: peers displaced BaobabÆs relatively slow grooves in Dakar clubs. :
:' Today, though, mbalax has been folded into BaobabÆs sound, just ':
,: another element of their cool eclecticism. Nearly a half-century :,
: old, this hybrid is clearly built to last. :
