5.0 out of 5 stars An experience worth repeating, February 14, 2002

This review is from: Wassolon (Audio CD)
I am an African dancer, and have been for nearly eleven years. The very first percussion CD that I ever owned was this one. "Wassolon" is a beautiful, well recorded percussion masterpiece that should be in the library of every serious dancer and music lover. Not only will you love it the first time you read it, but the second time and the third time sound even better. Buy it today, support the art.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Classic, June 13, 2011
By 
Noah (Buenos Aires) - See all my reviews
This is Mamady's first album, and possibly still my favorite. For students of the djembe/dunun and Guinea dance this is absolutely a must have recording. Also not a bad choice for those who just like the sound of African drums and singing.

Arrangement-wise it's a good blend of new and old: there are some ballet-style breaks but nothing too complex, and the tempos are moderate, making the album easy to listen to for enjoyment. The recording could be more detailed but the vibe is perfect.

The selection of songs and rhythms is great. Because of this album and Mamady's considerable influence over the djembe world, these songs have become classics throughout the world. You can go to a Guinea dance class in Belgium, Albuquerque, or Mexico City and sing these songs, people will sing along with you.
