Bembeya Jazz National The Syliphone Years: Hits & Rare Recordings Sterns 2007. Along with Horoya Band National, Balla Et Ses Balladins and Keletigui Et Ses Tambourinis, Bembeya Jazz National was one of the bands which led the renaissance of tradition-based music in Guinea following independence in 1958. All four groups enjoyed periods of spectacular artistry and innovation, and many listeners regard Bembeya as the greatest of them all. They are certainly emblematic of their era. Bembeya's line-up included some of Guinea's most gifted and singular musicians. While the album tracks are amongst the highpoints in the Bembeya canon, it is the 12 singles tracks-a mixture of A sides and B sides recorded 1969-73-which many will regard as the muthalode.
