we've met the marvelous mandinka before & they can do no wrong. the baule are a forest people & display a slighty weirder vocal tonality. there remains so much to learn & fortunately a decent amount of detailed lit is enclosed for our illumination. encroyable sounds & fidelity on this one. the baule forked harp sounds like it's being played underwater & the mouth bow has a roger troutman thang happenin. 320 vinyl rip, skans & liners. 1001 tanx & praises to op otra vez for this amazin hook-up
