3.0 out of 5 stars
So-so later album by an African pop legend,
By DJ Joe Sixpack (...in Middle America) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
This review is from: Babeti Soukous (Audio CD)
Tabu Ley Rocherau is one of the greatest African pop stars of the 20th Century, with a career that dates back to the late 1950s, and spanned well into the age of modern world music. This live album suffers from '80s-style "world beat" production: too-clean, too-rock drums and simplified melodic runs as prime culprits. Some icky, rock-flavored guitars as well. It is kind of interesting to hear Rocherau play in a live setting, but this stuff is nowhere near as captivating as the music he made in earlier decades, and the presentation as a whole has a kind of simplistic, hurried, Ziggy Marley-ish "gee whiz!" feel to it.
3.0 out of 5 stars
Babeti's Review.,
By Bobo (Ikperejere, Uboma Nigeria.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Babeti Soukous (Audio CD)
I've listened to so many soukous music, this is not as good as the better ones that I've listened to. It lacks power and soukous style and rhythm. Some might find different than I did, but that just my opinion about it.
