Description
Baloba! the group revives the classic Cuban sexteto tipico sound of the 1920 and '30s. This album's sones, guajiras and boleros are new compositions, but the buoyant bongos, maracas and guiro, the deep, comforting bass fiddle, the rustic trés guitar and the lyrical trumpet harken back to a bygone golden age. Yet in the same album Africando displays the breadth of its skill and style with vibrant contemporary renditions of Aicha - originally a hit for Khaled, the King of Rai - and Edith Piaf's timeless La Vie en Rose . Other songs feature the Haitian star Eugene Shoubou of Tabou Combo and the Senegalese salsero Laba Sosseh.
