Baba Soumano. Douga 

Baba Soumano et son ensemble.
Circa 1954.
Baba Soumano recorded at least 53 songs on 78 rpm discs, mostly on the Opika label. He was thus the most prolific Malian musician of the 1950s, exceeding the recording output of Koni Coumaré, Fanta Damba and other much more acclaimed artists. But who today knows of Baba Soumano? Please share...
