The best band from Mali5
Just back from the Womad festival at Reading. Hearing this band live was even better than listening to it on a CD. The guitar riffs are mind-blowing, and the whole ensemble plays together as one perfect musical instrument - including the vocals.
The Super Rail Band of Bamako was set up in the 1970, playing traditional Mali music at the central railway stations cafe in the capital Bamako. They have brought this old music into the 20th and then the 21st century, adding jazz and Cuban-African influences and fusing them into a smooth, rhythmic, perfect whole. This CD captures the best of the band.
