Include addictive groove "Bara Wililé" with dope tropical rhythm and distorted electronic sounds that stands out among Afro-pop. tunes. Other ones such as Afro-pop tune "Mandjougoulon" with irresistible organ playing in the middle and Balearic feel "Djougouya" could be used. It's in so-called "African condition" with some surface scratches, but the impression is that the sound is VG+/VG that doesn't bother us that much except for the quiet part/beginning. Ivory Coast Original.

マリ出身のシンガーSalif Kéïtaを中心としたアフロ・バンドLes Ambassadeurs Internationauxによる82年作。アフロ・ポップを中心とした楽曲のなかで異彩を放つドープ・トロピカルなリズムワークに歪んだ電子音が絡む”Bara Wililé”が中毒性のあるグルーヴで最大のハイライト。他にも中盤のオルガン弾きがたまらない軽快なアフロポップ”Mandjougoulon”、バレアリック雰囲気の”Djougouya”などどの曲も使えそう。表面擦れなど散見されるいわゆるアフリカン・コンディションですが音は静部/冒頭以外はそこまで気にならないVG+/VGといった印象です。コートジボワールオリジナル。
