5 out of 5 stars Even before I got to the wine. . ........2006-08-05

Yesterday I came home with six albums plucked from a 500Yen (about four dollars and change) bin and this was the first one I listened to. Three cuts into it I told myself that, even if none of the others panned out, the money would have been well spent. Fusion/techno/trans/synth lines/house/break - read the other reviews - I'm not sure what all of that adds up to, but Issa Bagayogo had me dancin' in the kitchen. Very groovy music.

For the most part my musical tastes are all over the place, rooted in Hendrix, The grateful dead, Zep, Pat Metheny, Fela, the blues, jazz, funk, etc. Issa's Timbuktu and Toussomakan are delightful combinations of percussive, trans-type, hypnotic grooves that should proove to be wonderful additions to anyone's musical collection who has an open mind and is looking expand their horizons.

5 out of 5 stars Rich Sounds.......2002-07-15

When I first heard Issa, it was at a performance at an outdoors amphitheater and was hooked ? I rushed out to get his latest CD. He combines traditional West African music with modern electronica into a most distinctive contemporary sound, which is easy to listen or/and to dance. I enjoyed this CD very much and would highly recommend it!

5 out of 5 stars A Great Work On Any Continent.......2002-04-09

The musical sensability of this album stands up to the best creations out there. It's not only infectious, it is also masterfully composed.

5 out of 5 stars A sonorous wonder.......2002-03-16

This album is simply beautiful. This is the first of its kind I've heard and I was blown away by the combination of suble, sophisticated arrangements and tight techno-like beats that would put most rap or techno albums to shame. The production is second-to-none and even though I don't understand a word, every song feels poignant and perfectly blended. This is an album with both rhythm and genuine musical quality. If you have ears, they will want to hear this.
