OK Live Performance.......2002-12-05

This album is good but not great. It captures Youssou live- but the sound is not stellar, and the set list is comprised mostly of Youssou's more Western-sounding songs. A bit uninspiring compared to the highly recommeneded "Best of 80's" & "Gran Bal 1&2"(live).

Octavio Pinto.......2007-07-17

I played Octavio Pinto's Scenas Infantis for two pianos in college and it was a fun piece to play. I never heard it performed, so, when I saw this recording I jumped at the chance to buy it. It is a good recording and you won't be disappointed. There was some, what I would call tape hiss, in #22 or some other engineering problem, don't know what it was? The recording inspired me to get the music for Rodrigo's Cinco Peizas Infantiles. Peggy and Patrice played well together.

A fantastic quadripartie recital by lisztian Leslie Howard.......2004-07-04

If you're a fan of this series, then you will be interested in hearing these first drafts and fragments. It is intriguing to see how several of the Album-Leaves' tunes were to later become the main themes of some of Liszt's popular works.
In this volume, I especially value the solo piano transcriptions of some of Liszt's symphonic poems (Mazeppa being my favorite, although as Mr. Howard explains, all these transcriptions were actually done by Liszt's pupils, with the master reviewing each transcription and then giving his approval).
My most favorite piece, of sheer delight, is on disc 4, the Pasztor Lakodalmas. Many thanks to Leslie Howard for discovering this utterly charming piece and making it available for us to hear!

Liszt you won't hear anywhere else.......2001-07-12

Four CDs of unpublished or recently discovered Liszt piano music, much of it very very nice indeed. Some first drafts, fragments, discarded pieces...a hodgepodge! But if you're a Liszt completist like me you won't want to be without it. Many thanks to Leslie Howard for his scholarship (and playing, of course) in this volume.

a Toubaab fan!!.......2003-06-15

You!
If you really want to make it in record sales, please produce more albums such as le Grand Bal. (Maybe english or french translations in the booklets would be nice). Also please release albums that you make in Senegal for the Senegalese population such as Baa Taay, which you cannot find on the internet. I had to buy it at one of your concert. Those are truly superior. You are cheating your public. Stop the watered down crap. And please Pascal Obispo duets... ... never again... ... at least leave the music arrangements alone and let him sing and play YOUR music not HIS.

Seminal Live Mbalax album.......2002-12-05

This essential recording captures Youssou & Etoile De Dakar in top form, performing unadalterated mbalax (not watered-down for Western sensibilies). Among Youssou's best 3 albums (along with Best of 80's& Rough Guide to Youssou N'Dour & Etoile De Dakar). Thrilling sabar, bubbling tama, wonderful vocal interludes by lead sabar drummer M'baye Dieye Faye, sparkling solos by guitarist Jimi Mbaye!
Very exciting, complex, polyrhythmic, propulsive, infectious- what great Afropop is all about! Solid live acoustics, nice balance, pleasing sound, strong song selections. Dance you will! Look for VHS recordings of this "Gran Bal" tour as well (imports)! Also recommended- Thione Seck & Raam Daan's "Live Aniversary"

un gran regreso.......2000-12-14

despues de varios años de ausencia en el mercado youssoun'dour vuelve con un cd realmente magnifico. En mi opinion superior a toda su produccion previa. Este cd envuelve con su ritmo, su cadencia, la hermosa vos, y ese ritmo tan peculiar a que nos tiene acostumbrados. Lo he escuchado en 15 dias una y otra vez y cada vez me atrae y valorizo mas. Para quienes gustan de youssou N'dour o de una musica diferente y hechizante.
