Interpreter: Sekouba Bambino
Label: Lusafrica
Location: Guinea

Honey-voiced Sekouba Bambino, known through his association with the Africando project, releases another in a series of solo outings. The melange of drum machine and impassioned vocals is clearly aimed at a contemporary audience - the tunes and performances nonetheless survive the occasionally predictable programming.
