Yusufu Olatunji And His Sakara Group - Vol 31
Review by Debrah Care
Vol 31 is a captivating album by Yusufu Olatunji and his Sakara Group. The album is a beautiful fusion of traditional African rhythms and contemporary music styles, resulting in a unique and delightful listening experience.
The album features a range of instruments, including the Sakara drum, which is a traditional West African percussion instrument. The use of these instruments adds depth and richness to the music, creating a dynamic and engaging sound.
The vocals on the album are also outstanding, with Yusufu Olatunji delivering powerful and emotive performances throughout. His voice is rich and soulful, and he sings with passion and intensity, bringing the songs to life.
The album features a mix of upbeat and mellow tracks, with each song telling a unique story. The lyrics are in Yoruba, a West African language, but the music transcends language barriers, and listeners can appreciate the beauty and emotion of the songs regardless of their understanding of the language.

Notes
- Music in the Sakara style (Moslem-influenced, mostly in the form of praise songs, using only traditional Yoruba instruments, such as the Goje violin, and the small round Sakara drum, which is similar to a tambourine and is beaten with a stick, to accompany nasalized, melismatic vocals that are typical of Islamic music.)
- Although the tracks are listed and numbered individually the playing is continuous.
