Super Boiro Band - 1 - Sakonké

Guinea's first orchestra of the independence era was l'Orchestré de la Garde Républicaine, who were split into two formations in the early 1960s. The 1ère formation were nationalised and were renamed the Super Boiro Band, led by Mamadou Niaissa on trumpet. Here they perform Sakonké, a classic from the Mandé repertoire and a track featured on their 3rd LP for Syliphone.
