List of West-African reference albums of Traditional Percussion Music

The following LIST represents no discography, but refers to a short article posted here yet weeks ago, then it remained to be still incomplete; it took some time but actually no efforts until we added —for this occasion— a searchable list on the artist and album names with links to the Google Inc. YouTube and Discography portal search engines — maybe helpful to discover new or known musical tracks… A FURTHER LEGAL EDUCATIONAL RESSOURCE FOR FRIENDS OF AFRICAN MUSIC:

Alpha Oulare & Sugé (Berlin 2000ff.)

Here you can listen to the time-less work by Alpha Oulare and his year-2000 Ensemble Sugé : Alakhawonmaly!! DIEU sera avec nous!! GOD will help us!! —You still may purchase the album, best as digital copies of the original (!) tracks from BandCamp, by this supporting the artist and his family.

(This exclusive mix contains by intention an odd reverberation/echo effect — therefore, instead, you should consider to purchase the original tracks / whole album at fair price via BandCamp!) If the track should not be playable, we are to suppose missing Internet connectivity or a server/network problem at sides of the Internet Archive, U.S. California.
(Cover of the 2022 digital album re-release)

You will find a transcription of the album booklet’s liner notes at the referenced external webpages…
