Popis - L'ORCHESTRE SIDI YASSA..:
After the 1960 independence, the Orchestre Regional de Kayes
was founded in order to reinvigorate the local cultures from
the Mand and the Kasso regions and turn some traditional themes
into modern songs. Under the guidance of bandleader Harouna
Barry, they evolve as one of Mali's finest orchestras. In the
early 1970s, like most modern bands of Mali, the orchestra
evolved into the Sidi Yassa de Kayes, named after Sidi Yassa, a
late great singer. In 1977, they release one eponymous LP in
1977 on the legendary Mali Kunkan collection.
