[obmak45]

Gracia Orchestra Baobab !

[dxronis]

3 peopel missed the point!

[carolpaladina]

What language is that? It has so many similarities with Portuguese! o.O

[souil2001]

@carolpaladina You are right, this language derived from Portuguese. It is called Creole Portuguese spoken in most of the African parts that had been colonized by Portuguese: Southern Senegal (where the singer is originated from); there is also Creole Portuguese in Bissau Guinea. Here is for you information and enjoy this beautiful tune.

[fizihkull]

@souil2001 I thought the language is Wolof?

[souil2001]

@fizihkull Sorry Most of the song is in Creole portuguese from southern Senegal. Of cours a few part of the song (just one sentence) is in Wolof in fact. I speak the both languages. Enjoy

[n00biachi]

Totally forgot to "favorite" them....just going through all my "like" video's and boom...here i am again.....

These guys were at North sea Jazz in The Hague i think back in 98....amazing....thanks for posting.

[giga150]

leider versteh ich kein wort

[spanishyoruba]

[demonart123]

Excelente, si alguien sabe cuando viene a Mèxico avisen.

Baobab.

[oikema1]

Gracias, Gracias.



[GSpicker]

When I was working as a dj I used to play it as my final track ........ imagine a nearly empty jazz club just before closing down, some people drinking their last drink at the bar, i was packing up my things, the staff started cleaning the tables from the empty glases ........ and this song playing ............... :) Fantastic sax and guitar solos ... just travel away ............

[4TFW]

Wow! I just noticed 3 people didnt actually like it. Was that a missclick of some sort or what? 0_0

[ucarpiom]

Extraordinaria ejecución para no cansarse de ver y oir

[bastifmbh]

truly amazing!!

[Islammormonfalse]

WOW

[surferpeteinspace]

Love it

[duarte2008040]

boa musica!

viva Senegal!

[rosaclean]

This is so friggin'good. Have known this song 4 about 2 years now(as soon as there's a hint of summer, they play it on the dutch radio.) Summer's to come and orchestra Baobab is going to stay... Didn't know they were so good live as well...

[beatnick47]

I agree with NixonMcvicar !!!

[leftysergeant]

Absolutely enthralling. The voices and instruments mesh in a fascinating way. It is hard to say which is answering or challenging which. This is jazz at its best, come full circle around the globe, with tales to tell of where it has been, and shiney artifacts from the cultures it met on the way.

[seanstef]

that my senegalese people and i am so proud that i come from there and living in the us now to expand and teach this beautiful culture. keep it up guys... i was dancing in this song whn i was 3 years old..goshhh gud memory.

[cpchehaibar]

Me encanta el maestro de la voz siguiendo el solo de guitarra

[shansen1000]

Absolute genius. They give me the chills.

[teddycozmik]

Such a funk groove. Roast down a fat 1 for this jam.

[elviso23]

Great one...

[MrJohnbolger]

Force et action!

One of the best gigs I have ever been to and Ive been to a lot.

[TheBitterWeed]

me too...

[AmaoNoBolso]

oui Issa Cissokho bravo

[jleven96]

Issa Cissokho on the tenor sax is an absolute phenom.

[MLeGoff]

Who is the Alto Sax???

[niarchoss]

Impressive Issa!!

[GothicErrorPLtl]

[kuffkuff]

Man Attisso and that guitar are inseparable.Never heard something like this in my life.Damn!!!

[JoseCarlosTiago]

José Carlos Schwartz,.sempre aquele que hoje

faz muita falta,e dentro de todas as lágrimas

quem teve inveja naquele momento,foi inculto

porque este estilo de música é bem dancável,

e nao só...oico mais de vinte vezes,obrigado

José Carlos,

[milobarron]

i'm kinda smokin' and listening to ngalam right now.

[SlaraWeee]

uy me ha gustado mucho.. :) nunca antes los habia escuchado.

[niarchoss]

Orchestra Baobab : viva el salsa!

[Mabarta2]

Seigneur, s'il vous plaît, où est la musique Ray N'bele?

[eriteugram]

I first heard Orchestra Baobab when I was 11 years old..sounded good then sounds awesome now...CLASSIC....love the cross influences between the Cubanos and Senegalese......There is hope for the races!

[PeaceAndJustice357]

well my friend I must inform you that there is minimal difference. This is Afro-Cubana culture so the cross influence you speak of is the parent returning what the child developed after they left and saw it was good.

[aoem77]

Muy buena música! saludos a mis hermanos africanos de un latinoamericano!

[Maxshard]

I heard this track on the late John Peel's radio many many years ago and memorised the name of the group then fogot all about it.

I remembered it the other day, l look it up and here it is. God bless youtube.

[phainopepla95]

These guys are beyond cool! Viva!

[aseignot]

They speak portuguese and woolof which is the national language of Senegal.

[salubrium]

You mean, French and Woolof, not Portuguese.

[sacundim]

No, they really mean portuguese and wolof. The language in this song is a Portuguese creole language spoken in Guinea-Bissau and southern Senegal (Casamance).

[Murple333]

What language(s) are they singing this in? I hear some parts that sound Spanish or Portuguese, but most of it is some African language I assume.

[pinchocrates]

The creole of Casamance and Guinea-Bissau, which is Portuguese-based.

[4TFW]

I'ts Ze Carlos' "Lua ka ta kema" and it's creole, but Orchestre Baoboab elevates it to a new level.

[badiubranku]

The song is generally known as Utru horas (some other times), but is really "Lua ka ta kema" (The moon does not burn), originally composed by the fabulous José Carlos Schwarz, from Guinea-Bissau in 1972. He was lead singer/composer of Cobiana Djazz. "Zé Carlos" died in 1977.

Orch. Baobab is truly a great band, but I hope you will look up Cobiana Djazz, as well. That will only make you richer.

[asnoep]

I can't find it...do you have a link? Thanks

[manolokoo]

@badiubranku hey was up, i search up cobiana djazz on google but there is no place to buy music, you know any website?

[badiubranku]

@manolokoo Hi! I am still waiting for Zé Manel and the recording company to do something. Anyway, "José Carlos Schwarz" will provide some sounds for you. He was the main man in the band, although other mebers were also composing great music. Check one of the blogspot sites, or cd stores around. At least 2 collections should still be available. Good luck!

[manolokoo]

@badiubranku ok thanks a lot!!! =)

[Beatis2008]

@badiubranku ciao, it seems you know them quite well: is there any way to get the translation of their songs: I love so much the sound and the music and the voices, so sensual and full of vibrations , and I really wish to know the contents...tahnak you , Beatrice from Italy

[throbule]

@badiubranku:

It so great that you have provided this valuable infprmation.

I've searched for years to find out who wrote this, and now I know.

Thank you so much!

[throbule]

If you like this, check out their other version of it - it is called: 'Hommage a Tonton Ferrer', and its just as brilliant.

Its the same music, just different title and style.

[94029374938402048]

See now these guys can play. Fuck Buckethead, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani... these guys have nothing to prove

[NixonMcvicar]

Divine...

[NixonMcvicar]

laissez le bontemps roulez.... simply the best band to ever grace this planet...

[toubasalam]

les grand ils sont toujours grands gz

[strandnimf]

Zo'n waanzinnig goed nummer, super

Wally

[MortalTpwc]

Sokol&Pono-Poczekalnia dusz CHECK THIS ITS RMX BAOBAB

[blandziak]

haha :) Sokół&Pono - Poczekalnie dusz! Check this! xD

[hellenback137]

And the kids are listening to RAAAPPPP!!!!!

I remember when the younger generation had something to say to their elders through the music they created and listened to!

[vichieous]

does anyone knows where is this band from exactly... i kinda would guess that tey are from either Cape Verde or Guiné Bissao but not so sure... just for the fact of their language

by the way this is great

[sacundim]

They're from Senegal. The singer is from Casamance, just north of Guinea-Bissau, which was settled by the Portuguese before the French took control, so yeah, there are people there who speak Guinea-Bissau Creole.

[juwara]

West-Africa.

Think about Mali, Senegal and Gambia ;)

[NixonMcvicar]

Fucking genius from stage left to stage right... probably the best band ever to have existed in the world ;-)

[nanda525]

@NixonMcvicar Agreed! Top five favs.. up there with Caetano Veloso & Pink Floyd. They are just a few of my favorite things! ;D

[taktujest]

Sokół ft. Pono - Poczekalnia dusz ;)

[lsnows]

This sonic alchemy soothes my soul and makes me want to look for a hammock.

[skaone3]

Same here. I have all the albums in my car for the long journeys. I grew up listening to these guys. I have to say they are at their best playing live. This just blows my mind away.

[NixonMcvicar]

Wow, you grew UP listening to this shit ?? You are truly one blessed individual. x

[4TFW]

It's "Utru Horas", the first song which I heard from Orchestra Baobab and it's like 5 years already that they are my favourites.

[throbule]

A majesterial performance here! - I love these guys and I have had the pleasure of having the new lead singer Assane Mboup come to my house - Eat your heart out you snivelling little toadies he he he...

[ruben1956]

Oh you miserable little toady! I envy you! They are masters. The music, I'd choose for the lonely island. You can listen to it every day, it will never lose its soul. It lives!

[Taimoe]

so tell me why this song is called "Hommage á Tonton Ferrer" on the Specialist in All Styles album! are there 2 versions of this song? greetz

[pinchocrates]

Yep, because Ibrahim Ferrer is featured doing a Spanish section in that newer version. And also Youssu N'Dour doing his thing in Wolof.

We better be grateful for having many versions of this great song to enjoy.

[4TFW]

Too Bad Mr. Ferrer passed away not so long ago. :(

[NixonMcvicar]

Orchestra Baobab.... what a great band !!!

[blaueSeekuh]

Who was Mr. Ferrer? R.I.P.

I saw the orchestra in 2000 or 2001, I forgot, but this was one of the best concerts in my life!!! Old and young people, between 16and 70! The Hall was not too big, so it almost was familiar, it was no problem to come close to the stage, because everybody was continiously moving and dancing, from the back to the front and around. and nobody got too drunk or so, that night was special, pure "love and peace and happiness"! Great Music! Thanks for the video!

[4TFW]

Whom I called "Mr. FerrerM was a man called Ibrahim Ferrer Planas, Cuban Bolero singer. He used to perform with Benny More and Arsenio Rodriguez (if I'm not mistaking) and recently in Buena Vista Social Club as depicted in numerous albums which are still being released after his passing away as well as inna flick called "Buena Vista Social Club" by Wim Wnders.

[blaueSeekuh]

Thank you for your answer:) I knew Ibrahim Ferrer, I have seen him also one time.

I have the cd pirates choice from baobab orchestra and in the concert they played each song of it:)

[kubaskubaniec]

odstawiam na bok te wszystkie czarne baby!

[galeguca]

for me this is best song......

number 1 on Legendary 1982 Session PIRATES CHOICE

Recorded by Moudy Camara

In Dacar - Senegal 1982

[amdiene]

I had the privilege todance with this groupe every other saturday for more than 15 years and this is a good reminder for me. being away from home watching this make like being home. Thank you a lot

[Slaphappy1975]

you are very lucky man sir.

[GabrielBean78]

It doesn't get much better than these guys, I had the luxury of seeing them live and meeting them all, such nice guys. They kept trying to get me to come on stage with my brother! The guitarist is probably among the most talented/ influential in the world!

[pinchocrates]

And he's a lawyer to boot.

Bart is sure one heckuva guitarist.

[mustangmonica]

I would love to see them play live. That would be a treat. As for now I will just groove to the awesome beats coming thru my headphones.

[fahafahafaha]

this is what I call music..

[jgildea]

I had the great pleasure of seeing them play this live (in Budapest) and it was the most unforgettable experience. There was about 6000 amazed people at the concert and all of our souls were communicating in the language of love. Orchestra Baobab reminds us of the incomprehensible beauty of humanity and the world. THANK YOU!

[sambajess]

Hey heys singing in Creole from Bissau, Guine-Bissau!! There is a wonderful mix in this group.... beautiful fusion of music and culture. No Djunta Mon!

[PascaII]

Everything about this song is perfect.

[NixonMcvicar]

Simply the best band ever.

[Slaphappy1975]

Orchestra Baobab are god. It gives me the chills to just listen to this song. I would give my left nut to see them live!

[Slaphappy1975]

I was JUST about to write that exact same line omg lol.

[ghosty422]

[NixonMcvicar]

Dudes,the whole point: Cuba played by Sengalese. Beautiful.

[strathchailleach]
