pretty good, but for some reasons sounds more like something from southern america than anything else.
>>68845067
the indestructible beat of soweto is pretty nice
>>68845894
That's because it has Cuban (guys from Buena Vista) and African musicians
>>68845928

I love Ali Farka Toure. If you like his sound and you want to hear more, I highly recommend his album Niafunke.

That's not African Scream Contest
plebs

Shango Dance Band was actually created by a percussionist from the original Koola Lobitos. Very interesting stuff
so I'm making a chart of my favorite african music albums (not compilations, albums). Am I missing anything aside letters N-Z?
>>68846883
add genres and/or possibly region
>>68846883
its pretty good as is. would love to see it once its done.
>>68846883
add some Kassav album, they were from the caribbean but were massively popular in Africa.
Other suggestions
Alpha Blondy - Jerusalem
Tiken Jah Fakoly - Francafrique
Keziah Jones - Blufunk is a fact
Amadou & Mariam - Dimanche a bamako
I love this whole album. It's very soothing and contemplative.

Amadou and Mariam are great! They were actually the instrumentalists behind Idrissa Soumaoro's album. Really great stuff!

>>68847250
for me it's the Cos-Ber-Zam song, "Ne Noya"
The Daphni remix is also super good
guy sued Michael Jackson and Rihanna
Ok here it is, all the african albums I like, and have digital copies of. Hit me up in a sharethread if you need a dl, friends :)
>>68847397
do you happen to have these all saved in a folder? because if so a zip would be much appreciated.
>>68847441
I don't :( I'm working on indexing everything and posting it on slacktunes eventually. It used to be indexed but then I added a ton of albums to my archive and it became a pain to manually update the index.
>>68847397
see
>>68846935
its just a bunch of names, not really useful for sharing
>>68847459

>>68847479
Thanks for the input. I'll try to add some cms to my site to make it searchable by region or something. But that's something for tomorrow. Cheers!
>>68847397
you should add graceland as an "honorary african" album
>>68847563
or Remain in Light :)
>>68847541
>Slacktunes guy gonna add searchability and navigation to his site

Why not go with a band that Paul Simon name drops on Graceland?
The movie and soundtrack are kino
