BEMBEYA JAZZ NATIONAL Special Recuil-Souvenir (Syliphone SLP 65) Vinyl LP, 1977
NM= Near Mint
Syliphone was the iconic label that recorded all the great Afrobeat bands of Guinea in West Africa during the period of "Authenticité" that inspired the musical revolutions in nearby Mali and Senegal, and has been the subject of recent, award-winning CD re-issue compilations. Mint copies of the original vinyl albums are now increasingly rare. Bembeya Jazz, led by incredible guitarist Sekou "Diamond Fingers" Diabate were the best of all the bands, and massively influential on music making in the region. Special Recuil was a tribute to their first singer Demba Camara who was tragically killed in a road accident, cause of great national mourning, and contains some of their greatest hits.
Tracks: Mossogbe/ Beni Barale/ La Guinée/ Dagna/ Fatoumata/ Boiro/ Ballake/ Alla Lake/ Waraba/ N'Borin/ Doni Doni.
