More about Mende poet/troubador Salia Koroma

Nikiibu's site------->
http://nikiibu.wordpress.com/

check this wonderful site out. Listen to the many wonderful songs posted on this site.   I had the luck of meeting Salia Koroma (see prior postings) and in the 1960's was also lucky enough to have appreciate and listened to his singing. In those days I also was aware of how important he was as a singer.  My friend Nikiibu has this wonderful analytic site about Mr. Koroma. Anyone who is interested in Mende culture would find this site very worthwhile. Nikiibu's analysis of Salia Koroma is a fascinating read.
