Notes
PMG present a reissue of Guelewar Band Of Banjul's Warteef Jigeen, originally released in 1981. "The Guelewar Band Of Banjul are a band quite unlike any other - an explosive mix of soul and funk with local rhythms like bougaraboo and ndaga combined with a defiant insistence on singing in their local language, Wolof. They certainly blew a young Youssou N'dour away. He cites them as his biggest influence. Warteef Jigeen marks the point the band found it's groove. The title track sets the tone early with parping horns and psychedelic guitar licks. 'N.T.C. The Gambia' and 'Jilana' seamlessly blend traditional percussion and plaintive sax. 'Leen Te Koun' and 'President Diawara' showcase some of the freakiest synth ever to come out of West Africa. It was Laye Ngom's decision as bandleader to draft his cousin as singer that elevates Warteef Jigeen. Moussa Ngom had paid his dues singing at traditional circumcision ceremonies and his rough, expressive vocals bring a level of melancholy and intensity to the album. It's a melancholy and intensity that can only come from years of watching young boys take this painful journey to Gambian manhood, a journey, in a way, that Guelewar Band Of Banjul made on Warteef Jigeen." - Peter Moore

    CD just described. As for shipping, you have to be patient as it can take up to two weeks for the company to ship the item; full disclosure, on the communication after the purchase, they let you know this fact. Have used them before and always forget about this. But buy with confidence as the company is legitimate and item was well packaged. Overall an A+ transaction.

    The CD "NASHVILLE GUITARS - 16 SUPER HITS" is brand new, sealed in its original packaging, as advertised. The disc itself is of good quality. It was packaged in a bubble wrap and suffered no damage during shipping. The seller always responds to messages and is attentive to the buyer. I'm very pleased with my purchase. Thank you very much! I wish the seller all the best!
