Made in Dakar?


 


"This is the latest chapter in one of the world’s most heartwarming musical stories – the saga of a group of musicians who have wowed audiences in stadiums, festivals and concert halls around the world, but who have retained the warmth, the spontaneity and essential humanity of the truly local band."

Check out the new versions of old Baobab classics recorded for the new release:
Ndeleng Ndeleng/New Version
Cabral/New Version

Now listen to the originals:
Ndeleng Ndeleng/Old Version
Cabral/Old Version

You decide...

Made in Dakar is wonderfully recorded and sounds great - Jerry Boys' production is always top notch. I'm also seeing them on tour in the UK in late November. But knowing the old recordings which I've come to love and adore its hard to get truly excited. I really wish I was there first time around.
