Assembled from a group of local musicians, Orchestra Baobab formed in 1970 as the house band for Dakar’s Baobab Club and spent the decade honing a West African dance music that variously incorporated Afro-Latin styles, pop, and West African griot music, among other styles.\"\n\nLove coming in from Senegal made my night!",
