Listen to the drums, to the rhythm. It all seems very close to us -- it feels like it's our own culture\" --Amara Touré. In late-'50s Dakar, Senegal, producer Ibra Kassé and his Miami nightclub spearheaded a movement blending the Cuban styles of son montuno and patchanga with local folk traditions. Through the unique cultural fusion of West African and Caribbean influences, Latin music took on a new and unique sound, brought a breath of fresh air into Dakar's nightlife, and attracted numerous musicians from surrounding countries. One of the musicians who answered this call was percussionist and singer Amara Touré from Guinea-Conakry.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmara Touré (with Black and White) Singles Collection 1973-1976: N'Nijo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmara Touré (with Black and White) Singles Collection 1973-1976: Temedy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmara Touré (with Black and White) Singles Collection 1973-1976: Lamento Cubano\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmara Touré (with Black and White) Singles Collection 1973-1976: Cuando Llegare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmara Touré (with Black and White) Singles Collection 1973-1976: Fatou\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmara Touré (with Black and White) Singles Collection 1973-1976: N'ga Digne M'be\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmara Touré Accompagné Par L'Orchestre Massako (1980): Salamouti\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmara Touré Accompagné Par L'Orchestre Massako (1980): Afalago\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmara Touré Accompagné Par L'Orchestre Massako (1980): Tela\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmara Touré Accompagné Par L'Orchestre Massako (1980): Africa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"79","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50570173284648,"sku":"426012606105","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/2890273.jpg?v=1763988920","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/toure-amara-1973-80-cd-426012606105","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
