STAR BAND DE DAKAR "Volume 2" RARE Vinyl LP
(Soumbouya / Sondodisc IK3021)
Condition: Record NEAR-MINT / Sleeve VERY GOOD
Description : From the 1960s through to around 1980, Star Band De Dakar were the breeding ground for modern Senegalese music, one of the first to mix the prevalent Cuban covers with Senegalese folklore and rhythms that led to dance crazes like the 'ventilateur' and eventually modern mbalax, Senegal's Afrobeat.
Along the way musicians came and went, leaving to form other bands like Orchestra Baobab and Etoile De Dakar: Youssou N'Dour began his singing career with the Star Band in the late 1970s before leaving to form Etoile.
Star Band records originally appeared on the Soumbouya label and then again via Sonodisc in different 'B' covers for the Senegalese community in France, still with the same IK catalogue numbers.
This probably early '70s album has a B cover: the record and label are visually pristine and probably only played once. Sleeve has small price stickers and some spotting on rear, front is clean.
Tracks : (Side A) Simbonbon/ Malobe Samba/ M'Bassa (Side B) Gossando/ Thioro Baye Samba/ Yene Khaleyeteye.
Singers: Magatte N'Diaye, Doudou Sow, Mar' Seck and Bala Cidibe (later of Orchestra Baobab)
Packaging : All our records are sent in cruciform mailers with extra stiffners.
