I've got five. I like 'Como esta' a lot.

The others are 

Holiday in Havana - cheapo on Design from 1960, but probably earlier material

 

Holiday In Havana (LP, Album, Stereo) album cover

 

His piano and rhythm - Ansonia 1960 - very nice indeed

 

His Piano And Rhythm album cover

 

Mambo with Noro - Palladium 1952 very nice indeed

Mambo With Noro album cover

 

Mambo with Morales - Harmony (Most is with Humberto Morales)  

Mambo With Morales album cover

 

The cheapos are likeable, but I don't think they're as nice as the proper issues. But I bet they're a cinch to find in cutout bins.

Many thanks! :tup

iNo! ¿Que es?

Kanaga de Mopti started off as the Orchestre Regional de Mopti. It was one of the original regional bands subsidised by the Ministry of Information of the post-colonial government of Mali. This is their first recording, from 1970, recorded by the Ministry of Information and released on Barentreiter-Musicaphon. The Mopti Region includes the Bandiagara Escarpment, the central part of the land of Do, home of the Dogon. Very important centre for tourism.

The band's second album was made in 1977 for the Mali Kunkan label, owned by the Ministry of Information (apparently now owned by Syllart). This was recently reissued on CD. It's outstandingly brilliant.

Pawi is one I recently found out about from the guy from whom I've been buying African records on and off for thirty-something years. He doesn't know when it issued.

All three of these albums are very different.

MARION BROWN | MUSIQUE DU FILM DE MARCEL CAMUS _ LE TEMPS FOU | POLYDOR_PRIVILEGE | 1969 |FRENCH FIRST STEREO PRESSING 658 142 LP

Marion Brown's rarest record and one of his finest is a soundtrack for Marcel Camus' film "Le Temps Fou" ("Crazy Time" or "Crazy Weather"). The music heard on this record is mostly free improvised Jazz, but on one track, "Boat Rock", Brown unleashes a Free Funk monster that should have made him a rich man were we living in a just world, except we're not. Can't get enough of this music and the gorgeous cover, which is as psychedelic as a Jazz cover probably gets, but in my list of favourite Marion Brown albums, his debut still ranks on first place. This has recently been reissued by "Le Très Jazz Club" from France with original artwork (even used a flipback construction as found on the original pressing) and from what I read it also sounds good.

Impressive original to own.
