4.0 out of 5 stars
Great CD,
By A Customer
This review is from: New Life (Audio CD)
I had the opportunity of seeing the Prince live at the Getty Center. He has a great stage presence and fun band. I enjoyed his kora playing and recommend this cd to anyone looking to boarden their music awareness. I had purchased the cd at Getty and have enjoyed listening to it.
4.0 out of 5 stars
He may have saved the kora from oblivion.,

This review is from: New Life (Audio CD)
What if someone took the kora and not only played Manding-rooted music on it, but other seemingly-unrelated musics as well? We now have the result: Prince Diabate, the descendant of a long long of griots from Guinea and Mali, has put together an album of songs that tours the world without ever completely leaving West Africa; and by doing so he may have saved the kora from oblivion.
Flamenco on the kora? You bet: who needs a guitar?
5.0 out of 5 stars
Necessary Music for the Soul,
This review is from: New Life (Audio CD)
What could be better than this musical journey through the continents with Prince at the helm? This CD provides wonderful nourishment to your soul. The poly-rhythmic nature of the songs and their sheer energy will pull you off your chair and get you dancing. An energizing and spirit-lifting CD.
