More music from the Rail Band
| "If you have an ear for Salif Keita, Mory Kante or other Afro-rock stars of the north-west, than you can't get by without this band, the progenitors of Mandingo rock in the seventies. Mixing the Zaire- to-Cuba rhumba with American rock and soul, and filtering it through a distinctly Mandingo groove, this band is still pounding out some of the hardest pop music on the continent. This twelve piece band of guitars, horns, drums, bass and singers has ignored the glitz of Paris in favor of the grit of Bamako, and the results are inevitably satisfying. The uniquely local melodies of electric guitarist Djelimadi Tounkara dominate the set, fluid re-voicing of the kora in the time honored folk process. Super. No lie... " - CF, RootsWorld |

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
