Oumou Sangaré - Yala (funk overload)

[Peter C]

You have been warned

[KirkP]

I first heard her on Bela Fleck’s film “Throw Down Your Heart”.

[Peter C]

^Thanks, I hadn't heard that song. What can you say? Just keep still and let that voice get inside you.

[Mark M.]

I have been listening to her for probably 25 years. I love West African music. Her voice and the groove of her music is really captivating.

I saw Oumou live back in the 90s.

I'm a great fan of African music of all kinds - in fact, if you include jazz it's my favorite music. I got into Brazilian forms heavily and play that half the time..
