Het heeft gewoon zo moeten zijn denk ik, Gerrit van Lola Radio
bracht ons laatst twee prachtige platen van Fanta Damba, dank
daarvoor Gerrit. Hij sprak daarbij ook over Fanta Sacko, laat ik nou
net vorige week die elpee van haar hebben gevonden. Het betreft
een uitgave van het ‘Ministere de l’Information, Mali Music’ op het
Bärenreiter label. Het album schept enige verwarring vanwege het
feit dat er 8 nummers op staan en volgens hoes en label 10. De tijden
zoals die vermeld worden kloppen ook geen van allen. Aangezien ik
ook geen woord Malinees versta ben ik er maar van uit gegaan dat
de langste twee nummers samenvoegingen zijn van twee titels.
Als iemand het mysterie kan oplossen, heel graag ..
I guess it was just meant to be. Shortly, Gerrit of Lola Radio Blog,
brought us two great recordings by Fanta Damba, thanks for those
Gerrit. He also spoke about a record by Fanta Sacko. What a coinci-
dence, I just found that record last week. It concerns a release by
le ‘Ministere de l’Information, Mali Music’ on the Bärenreiter label.
The album causes some confusion because it contains 8 tracks while
label and sleeve speak of 10 songs. The times of the tracks also don’t
match with those at the backsleeve. Now I don’t understand a word
of Malinese so I just assume the longest two tracks are mergers of
two songs. If anyone can solve the mystery, please do ..
P.S.
After having some things cleared up in the comment section, I decided to
make the necessary adjustments to my file. Thank you Issa, Ngoni and Toto
for waking me up and explaining what must have happened here. I now under-
stand I have a quite unique misprint of the album. An error was probably-
made in the production proces and it just so happened I stumbled upon a
copy which should have been destroyed. It escaped from the factory and
ended up in my collection many years later. Thanks to Issa I was now able
to correct the titles. Everybody, ATTENTION; download it again with the
proper titles. Enjoy the sometimes longer versions and the one, previous
unreleased, track ( Mamadou Ndiaye ) The sound is perfect, listen
once more and realise, this is a unique mistake. 😉
For those who didn’t follow earlier, the correct and final copy of this
album has ten instead of eight songs, in a different order and of other
length. Another difference is track four which does not appear on the
other record. (the final cut)This album does not have ‘Tubaka’, ‘Jeliké jan’
and ‘Maliens be di yala’, which the final cut does have.
Enjoy listening everybody ..
