Pure enchantment resonates through every track of this 2001 release. Baaba Maal's fingers dance over the strings of his acoustic guitar, while bass, balafon, calabash, and timbales create a joyful noise, over which Maal's expressive vocals soar. Abandoning the louder pop influence of his previous few albums, MISSING YOU reverts to the gently rollicking acoustic sound that lifted the Senegalese folk singer to international stardom in the early 1990s. (It was recorded mostly live in Senegal, with a few transparent overdubs.) The most stirring track here is the album closer, "Allah Addu Jam." The first few minutes feature Maal's plaintive vocals sung for peace with minimal instrumental accompaniment. At the four-minute mark, the full band comes in, and the song lifts to the spiritual intensity of a great gospel tune.

5 stars Baaba Maal comes home!
This music is incredible! After trying out fun, rap, hip-hop and world-beat on previous albums, Maal comes home to pure africa, with unbelievable vocal tracks backed by solid, sometimes spectacular AFRICAN rhythms. This is the best from Baaba Maal since Djam Leelii in the 80s!

Ultradiscs are mastered from the original master tapes using Mobile Fidelity's proprietary mastering technique, then plated with 24-karat gold and housed in a stress-resistant lift-lock jewel box. "You Can't Lose What You Ain't Never Had" and "The Same Thing" did not appear on the original version of FOLK SINGER. They were recorded at a separate session in April 1964, three months after FOLK SINGER was released. The title and cover photo of this 1963 recording were an attempt to cash in on the burgeoning American folk revival, but this is pure acoustic blues. Muddy began his career as a Robert Johnson-style solo acoustic performer, and the tunes on FOLK SINGER hark back to those days. He's accompanied sparsely by Willie Dixon, drummer Clifton James and a young Buddy Guy, who provide a stark, deliberate backdrop for Muddy's rich vocal and expressive bottleneck guitar work. The richness of Muddy's baritone is showcased effectively here, with more room than usual for his voice to resonate. The low-key setting allows Muddy to explore a fuller dynamic range as well. From the romantic yearning of "Long Distance Call" to the fatalism ...
