4 out of 5 stars "Live direct from Madagascar -- just for you!".......2004-08-04

Salegy is a fast 12/8 dance beat that is very popular in Madagascar, and Eusebe Jaojoby is nicknamed "The King of Salegy". This 1992 album was his first to be released in the U.S. and Europe. It includes a new recording of his biggest hit, 1988's "Samy Mandeha Samy Mitady". Jaojoby is the songwriter and lead singer for the band that bears his name. The Jaojoby band plays electric instruments instead of the traditional Madagascar instruments used by bands like Tarika. The songs usually have choruses that repeat a call-and-response between Jaojoby and his backup singers. "Tsaiky Joby" and "Tsy Zanaka Mpanarivo" are also highlights; the latter includes a couple of on-purpose coughing fits in its arrangement. The sound quality is pretty decent, considering the album was recorded live onto 8-track with no monitors available in Madagascar before being mixed and mastered in the U.K. The album was co-produced by Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull fame, who also wrote the liner notes.
