    Deep into their career, Dieng at times reveals the advanced stage of its players. The songs are taken a step slower, the rhumbas show a consideration for the pulse as well as the spaces between them, and the themes in some manner or another touch upon mortality.

    Orchestra Baobab have truly mellowed with age--those expecting a rawer and urgent take on West African rhythms may come away disappointed--but Tribute to Ndiouga Dieng is a triumphant spin on their classic style.
