SUPER DJATA BAND - "EN SUPER FORME VOL. 1" LP
LULUS:
Damn this is so killer. Meditative African style of pure shredding that has roots in Afro beat/Ali Farka Toure leaning styles out of West Africa. Infectious percussion delivered with completely hypnotic guitar arrangements over brilliant vocal melodies that are sung beautifully in their native Mande language. As meditative as the recent Dadahwah re-issue was mixed with some of the best moments from those Ethiopiques compilations. Highly recommend it.
1200:
Connecting Wasulu hunter music, griot praises, Senufo pastoral dances, Fula and Mandingo repertoire alongside Western psychedelia, blues and afro-beat, Zani Diabaté’s Super Djata Band de Bamako was among Mali’s top orchestras by the late 1970’s well into the mid-1980’s. Tracked live inside Radio Mali’s raw but inspiring studio in January 1982, En Super Forme was briefly available via Côte d'Ivoire’s Musique Mondiale imprint. The album centers around Diabaté and his electric guitar’s pyrotechnics, a relentless shredder that stands shoulder to shoulder with Mali’s fingerstyle gods Ali Farka Touré and Rail Band's legendary Djelimady Tounkara
