Mamadou is known for his tasteful and gentle kora playing, which is rooted heavily in the jeli tradition. He plays primarily traditional-style songs, but brings new life, and new accessibility, to the tradition by performing with various jazz, blues and rock musicians throughout the world.
"Djelika Djan", meaning "Tall Griot". This name was bestowed upon Mamadou by his cousin, Toumani Diabate, in reference to his impressive physical stature: Mamadou is extraordinarily tall.
Personnel: Mamadou Diabate (kora); Abdoulaye Diabate (vocals); Fuseini Kouyate (ngoni); Famoro Diabate (balafon); Ira Coleman (acoustic bass); Cheick Barry (bass); Fode Seydou Bangoura (djembe).
Recorded at Burbland Studios, Montclair, New Jersey.
