[spoiler="Об альбоме (сборнике)"]
The traditions of the Fula griots and the Mende, Themne, Limba and Karanko drums, compose the present musical panorama.

The first track is 10 minutes of a man singing, occasionally joined by another male singer, over a drone of repeated chords on an instrument that sounds much like a ukelele. The second track consists of a woman singing a somewhat more interesting line over an equally repetitious accompaniment played by what the notes identify as three guitars; but whose most notable characteristic for European trained ears is their non-Western standard tuning and tone color--rather restricted in upper overtones (dull) by our standards. The third track is a nine minute solo on a three holed flute; the construction of the piece results from the immediate repetition several times in succession of very small fragments--4, 5, or 6 note fragments. Track 4 is a village chant/dance, with drums, rattles and cowbells in a style that may well be familiar to anyone who has had a slight exposure to 'traditional African village music'. Track 5 is rather similar in nature, but with
lutes, and not the best recording quality. Track 6 is a Christian Hymn sung by two schoolgirls. Track 7 is a xylophone and chant track; track 8 more chanting with drums and cowbells, very repetitious; track 8 is women singing with a rattle.
There is a nice variety of instruments and styles; but not one track stands out as particularly fascinating. The collection demonstrates how different African and European music and aesthetics are; jazz, blues, and the like notwithstanding. For someone looking in particular for examples of music from Sierra Leone, of course this will do; but for someone in search of something really special and unique I doubt they will be satisfied with this particular CD.
