Music : Dimanche a Bamakoby: Amadou & Mariam
Disc 1:
Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Magnifique - Absolument!I cannot really describe myself as a World Music fan - lack of time principally: there is a 'world of music out there after all. And, I admit it: I thought I was on to a winner here given Manu Chao's involvement. Just occasionally, you know a record's going to knock you dead ten seconds into track 1. This is one of those records. Yes, Manu Chao's influnce is evident throughout but the stars of the show are Amadou and Mariam. From start to finish, across a wide variety of textures, colour ...

I own some other music from Mali - Salif Keita, Toumani Diabate -, but I had never heard Amadou and Mariam, which is I guess more "poppy".

It's not bad, but you can find better Rating: - beautiful tunesI stumbled upon this album by chance and had never heard of this couple but am wowed by their sound - what a gorgeous album - even my young children love it! This is totally enchanting and i think you should buy it!
