A really well done compilation Ð the first of what looks to be a great label from Dakar! This well researched, fully annotated collection brings together rare work by Idrissa Diop Ð a great range of early 70s material done before his relocation to France, lots of it with a great blend of Senegalese and Cuban elements! The rhythms are wonderful Ð really spinning out in these hypnotic ways, and often encouraging a bit of descarga-like jamming from the musicians, especially on the longer tracks Ð and the full notes in the set really helps put the music in context. Titles include -Caridad-, -Kaele-, -Massani Cisse-, -Fonkale Garape-, -Gueth-, -Yaye Boye-, -Cintorita-, and -Dioubo-.
