African Music Reviews Volume 3

Lucky Stars & Rosy Mornings: The 60s Ibadan Juju Scene
Original Music (Original Music, 418 Lasher Road, Tivoli, NY 12583 914.756.2767) is the warehouse of all things old and unusual, and they have unearthed more treasures on Lucky Stars & Rosy Mornings: The 60s Ibadan Juju Scene.

These days, the World Music charts are being dominated by Celtic influence, but the African sounds that Simon helped to popularize continue to be a hotbed of creative activity. And in keeping with the general trend of multi-cultural cross-pollenization, many African artists are coming out with fascinating blends of styles that are anything but strictly traditional.
For the past decade or so, Paris has been a hotbed of World Music, with many African artists from countries like Zaire, Senegal, Mali and Nigeria coming together with Western influences to record and perform. Some of the best known are Youssou N'Dour and Baaba Maal from Senegal and King Sunny Ade from Nigeria, all of whom have absorbed Western influences in their music while still maintaining traditional ingredients.
One of the most creative and downright interesting of the African artists who have achieved a measure of popularity in the West is Salif Keita, who has just released a ne
