African Music to Make You Smile



Just for fun I thought I would share some music from Africa, when I am feeling low this kind of music uplifts me, love it when Jasmine was a small baby and colicky would dance with her to this and it soothed her. There is a wonderful music company called Putumayo that does CD's from around the World, I have a few it introduces us to musicians we may never have heard of :-)
Enjoy :-)





Bongo - Mulemba Xangola - Angola
Sekouba Bambino Famous - Guinea


What country shall I cover next?

    I fell in love with African music years ago when I saw Watoto children's choir! Thank you for your visit to my site. Look forward to more from your blog.

    Music doth sooth the savage breast-I love reggae for the same purpose. I think if we made warring countries listen to reggae they would stop fighting....

    I like the uplifting sound of this song. It reminds me of the jazz tunes of the 60s and 70s.
