Na Hawa Doumbia – Sakòrò Mery,AS Records 1982

From 1982, this is Na Hawa Doumbia’s second album. One of
the three she recorded in Mali shortly after being discovered.
She became maybe Mali’s most popular Wassoulou singer.
I am most impressed by the freshness of her young voice
which belongs amongst the worlds finest, no doubt. The LP has
some crackles but that can’t keep us from enjoying her pure
and beautiful sound before moving to Paris and changing to a
much more modern appraoch. Enjoy Na Hawa Doumbia.

tracks;

1 Sakòrò mery
2 Demisen kulu
3 Ma i ni wula
4 Jigi yiri

    Hi,

    Today, I finally put some links on my blog. Just a few of them. And Global Groovers is amongst them. Because I really enjoy your blog. I discovered it through a Docteur Nico album I was searching for years (I left you a message at that time, about 2 years ago)). I like the fact that you only post your own LPs.
    The purpose of my blog, L’Elixir du Dr. Funkathus is not to have albums to download but, just, write about music, especially brazilian music, funk, etc…

    Keep digging !

    Great, I love Malian music – very curious how she sounds in the ’80s… if the Wassoulou sound is already there. Thanks for this one!

    I am not a big Nahawa Doumbia fan, maybe this will change my mind. Thans for the chance.

    thank you so much. I am also looking for her first album: Nahawa Doumbia “Découverte 81 à Dakar” . You wouldn’t have a line on that would you?
