CD DetailsSynopsis
Album Description World music side project for the Blur/Gorillaz frontman, released on his own label Honest John. Featuring Albarn sitting in with some of his most favorite Malian musicians, including guitarist Afel Bocoum & kora player Toumani Diabate. Resulting in one of the coolest & laid-back world/crossover projects to emerge, with Albarn's melodica adding to the chilled, dubby flavor of the record, all the while retaining a distinct African overtone. Standard jewel case size digibook. 2002. Similar CDs

CD ReviewsDamon Damon Damon...what a boy Braden Mckinley | Vista, CA United States | 09/17/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is a beautiful record. Hands down. The musical textures and rhythmic layers are soothing and gorgeous. Listen to it with an open ear, it grows on you after 1 listen. From there on out, its musical bliss! Damon and Co. rule!" Africans did not get ripped off according to the man himself J. Ling | 01/16/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "This record is a fine piece of work and represents a spirit of music that seems to be loss in the hype of manufactured bollocks. It truly defines and explores music as a universal language - appealing to both locals and new listeners. To be fair, below is a quote to disprove what review djiembefola "a do-it-your-selfer" has to say above in his review 'Africans get Ripped-off Again'. I feel it is only fair that someone stand up to loose slandering. The quote was taken from an interview with Alburn that spoke all about his work with the Malian musicians... [...]" This music is my heart beating... park mi-jung | Seoul, South Korea | 08/22/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "Damon , Damon , Damon...
mmm... this music is the greatest thing in my life. I think Damon achieved his end in music when he went to Mali. His voice is more peaceful and natural so I hope to go to Mali. Above all I knew Damon had considered carefully when he made 'Think Tank'. 'Think Tank' is certainly related with this album. My favorite is 'Sunset coming on'... Tears come into my eyes when I listen to this song,, It seems to be Damon's feeling... I think so... Mali Music is like my heart beating, and fresh meeting. Thank you Damon,, lovely Damon..." |
