I refer you to Aduna's site for more cassettes from the same remarkable label, and, if no one else will, I will post some more volumes of other orchestras in the (not too distant, if I can find more time) future.
Strangely, two tracks of this volume ("Adouna" and "Guantanamera") were repeated on the second. Apart from a difference in speed, which may be due to the physical condition of the tapes, I think the tracks are the same.
And the last note of "Mambay Fary" is missing, which may suggest that my copy is a pirate version.
But it's still a very enjoyable cassette.
Touba Auto K7 Vol.1

Is this a cassette only label? These two volumes and the Guelewar II de Banjul that Aduna posted are all really good (you don't have vol 1. from Guelewar do you?). Seems like a label begging for re-release in more modern formats.
The "K7" (French & pronounced: "ka-sette") certainly suggests that it was a cassette only label, and I have never seen vinyl from this label.
A number of the tracks have been re-released on Dakar Sound (recommended).
I don't have the first Guelewar.
Hummmm...
Que calentito ¡¡
Thanks a lot.
wonderful ka-sette
number one is number one
many many thanks

sooooooooo good! makes me wanna be at a nightclub in dakar (sahel would do), ice cold gazelle in hand, ceeb jen down the hatch, glint of brass ensuring a decent sound for the night, talking nonsense at the bar, buying laba sosseh another drink, pinching myself to check i am not dreaming.
this music is just heads and shoulders above most other african stuff, and i really love all african, but god this is the stuff!
