Thanks again for sharing these wonders.
...@WrldServ<br />Thanks again for sharing these wonders.<br /><br />Re-reading my comment, I note that I wrote "Namory", instead of "Damory", and "listing" instead of "listening".<br />Forgot to mention that you have to add ten years at the dates in the Djeli Moussa "Bio", and it does not seem accidental to me, that the singer in "Dianyemoko" repeated twice "Damory eh micorofola", I think highlights he the attention, to show that he is the singer.<br />The spelling of the names of the artists, and Bamana expressions are improvised.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7791963494354887351.post-6834954591063176182015-10-31T13:58:26.131-07:002015-10-31T13:58:26.131-07:00@Ngoni: Thanks for the research!

I waslooking for some info...Some resolved unknowns.<br />I waslooking for some information about National Badema, them came to a biography of Santoutou Kanouté, there said he have belonged to the staff of Badema, and also to Les Messegers de la Capitale, then I come back to listen this again carefully, is in Diayemoko (nice people),when I discovered that they used the historical "Banindé", only to praise his head orchestra and sax Badani Samaké, comparing him to all the great men of the country, and after listing at the end of the song I found they discover the name of the musicians.<br />Madani, sakifola<br />Sory, trompetifola<br />Moussa, bassifola<br />Djeli Moussa,mediumfola<br />Diewoye,solofola<br />Mattie, micorofola<br />Lamittie, micorofola<br />Lassie, micorofola-djembefola<br />Abou Diou, dombafola<br />Namory, micorofola<br />Also I confirm that the medium guitar is Djelimoussa Kouyate, thanks to its misleading and incorrect dates biography ( http://www.africultures.com/php/?nav=personne&no=4537), I think it's also Santoutou singing "Signaro" (title of his solo album), and I suspect that another solo voice can be Damori Kouyaté.<br /><br />When trying to hear the names I found that speed is a little faster, decreasing 3% better understand the words and the music seems more real.<br />https://soundcloud.com/ngoni-1/les-messagers-a1-dianyemoko-3<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7791963494354887351.post-42872324587140997982013-07-21T07:37:38.973-07:002013-07-21T07:37:38.973-07:00Thank you so much for this making truly remarkable...Thank you so much for this making truly remarkable recording available to us.
