Diabel Cissokho - Kanabory Siyama (Senegal 2012)

An Uncle Roddus Album Review



West African kora music on this very recent release and although it sounds like many other contemporary African albums I have heard, that is not a bad thing. A pleasant record with its complex multi instrumentation and makes wonderful soothing background music. On closer contemplation these is plenty here to keep one interested and the foot tapping. Not a record that is totally inspiring, so not something that I feel is essential to my collection probably because this is more traditional African music than the Afrofunk I usually listen to. Overall a nice album and I will rate it 3/5.
