Bobo Yeye: Belle Epoque In Upper Volta (Various Artists)

Bobo Yeye: Belle Epoque In Upper Volta (Various Artists)

From his studio in central Bobo-Dioulasso, photographer Sory SanlÃ© documented a nation's transformation from colonial foothold to cosmopolitan oasis. Bobo Yeye: Belle Epoque in Upper Volta provides an intimate look into the landlocked nation's pop culture explosion of the 1970s. A melange of community elders and emboldened youth spill from the brightly lit confines of SanlÃ©'s Volta Photo into the dimly lit nightclubs of Upper Volta's cultural capital. Accompanying this hardbound monograph are dozens of rare and evocative recordings spread over three discs by Bobo-Dioulasso's musical titans: Volta Jazz, Dafra Star, Echo Del Africa, and Les Imbattables LÃ©opards.
