mindblowing.......2006-02-04
I first heard this album while driving through an emerald boom-town in western Madagascar. The place was teaming with recently arrived prospectors. Stone-faced refugees of poverty, seeking a meager fortune through backbreaking labor. There were so many people walking along and across the only road that we could only drive at walking speed, the tempo of Jammu Africa. The air was thick with the smell of smoke. I don't know what Ismael Lo is singing- but to me the solemnity of the title track captures every bit of what i felt at that moment.
Jammu Africa soars high.......2003-04-24
The title track is truly a moving emotional track that can't be played less than a dozen times or more over and over. Other tracks are excellent and will draw you into this artists experience. Really liked Tadiau Bone as well.
This album will move you, bring you to tears or bring bright smiles. Considering that I am a 37 year old white guy from Flushing who grew up on Black Sabbath, AC-DC, and Rush, you can bet that Ismael Lo is for a very wide audience of music lovers. Find this album somewhere and buy it...it's hard to find nowadays.
Great music that flows easily.......2001-03-21
A beautiful album, Ismael is a great singer. The music is real world music: truly African AND truly global. I guess it's an album which appeals equally to the newcomer to African pop music as well as to the Africa expert.
The best Lo.......2000-04-26
Ismael Lo's sound is unique. Less sophisticated then Youssou N'Dour, his voice his perhaps more soulfull. This CD contains some of more famous Lo's songs: Sophia, Dibi Dibi Rek, Tajabone (the song of "Tutto su mia madre", the Almodovar's film) and the beautifull Jammu Africa. Lo at his best.
Excellent recording!.......2000-03-10
This is the re-release of the CD, and I'm so happy to finally have a copy of it after waiting for so long! The music here is truly excellent - Lo's singing is very soulful and from the heart. He captures so many different moods, in all of his songs. The instrumentation is captivating, and there are parts that I dance to that remind me of Paul Simon's "Graceland." All of the songs on this album are great, but there are some I like more than others. Dibi Dibi Rek is just the best. The duet with Marianne Faithful is unforgettable. A must have!

More Ismael Lo! Senegal's least known Great Songwriter!.......1998-12-05
In contrast to the above review, I feel that this is as good, if not better, than ISO. With Jammu Africa (Peace to Africa--Pulaar), Lo creates another work of subtle beauty. Nafanta, one of my favorites, evokes the warm wind of the coming rains and the endless horizons of inland Senegal. Reminds of the mythical relaxing bush taxi ride. It is, moreover, very accessible to the American audience-- as long as they can abandon the need to understand the words. As with all African music, the music is the thing, not the content-- though for those who do understand french (or Wolof or Pulaar, though if you understand those languages I doubt you need persuasion to buy this particular CD) he does turn a good phrase. For those who have only heard this record on a scratchy west African market tape, buy this CD. The difference is amazing and, well, everything you expected it would be. I think the duet of Femme Sans Haine is wretched, the worst song on the album and rather like hollywood's version of just about any french movie. Marianne Faithfull sounds like a frog in an oven, and the english translation is hokey. Try Raciste, or Samba et Leuk, or the "dance mix" (as we called it) of Dibi Dibi Rek to get a better feel for the thing. Buy it, you'll love it.
Top Of The Line!!.......1998-08-28
One of my favorite CD'S. This was one of the first Cd, of any genre of music, that I didn't tire of listening to it repeatedly. His voice soothes, and his music reaches. I was wonderful surprise to find Ismael Lo and this Cd 'Jammu Africa'.
