The Magnificent Goldberg Posted December 1, 2009 Report Posted December 1, 2009 I'd been feeling that I hadn't been keeping up with kora players, so I had a quick flick through Amazon UK a few days back and found a few. The first three turned up this morning. Dembo Konte & Kausu Kouyate - Kairaba jabi This is a reissue of their LP "Simbomba", with another LP's worth of material, some recorded the year before and not released, one done in the nineties. Astounded to see this reissue had been around for over a decade without me noticing it. The bonus material is well up to scratch. Toumani Diabate - The Mande variations Issued last year. Very beautiful. But... Amadu Bansang Jobarteh - Tabara When I played this one after the Toumani Diabate, the difference was even more pronounced than the comparison between the two versions of "Ancient strings". Toumani is an artist; he even invented a new way of tuning the kora. Amadu (Toumani's uncle - brother of Sidiki Diabate) is a worker. His job is to show his people the greatness of their society. His music is majestic; overwhelming. MG Quote

king ubu Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 Do post some about these in the other thread, once you've heard them! I think I have the Jelly Roll material (or some of it - on a Chrono Classics), but other than that the only one of these I have is the Bix... Quote

I think I have the Jelly Roll material (or some of it - on a Chrono Classics), but other than that the only one of these I have is the Bix... I will, yes. Some wonderful insights and suggestions there. The difficult part is narrowing things down to a manageable size -- which I may not have succeeded in doing. But I'm looking forward to each of these.

I keep meaning to mention the Cab Calloway JSP box (vol 1 1930-35), but I see you've got the Missourians, which is what the band was called in the twenties. Most interested to hear your views on that. MG Quote

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted December 5, 2009 Report Posted December 5, 2009 Another of my order for kora players turned up this morning Mory Kante - Sabou This, unlike all his previous releases, is all acoustic. But the music is pretty similar to all his previous albums. There's more room for his kora playing, which is a good thing. I think this is going to become my favourite Mory Kante album. MG Quote
