All-girl group accompanied by their instructor on the guitar, recalling Guinean folk and early Ali Farka Touré. Folkloric songs, praising culture, tradition, and emphasising importance of education to nomadic world. A very important recording in the history of Nigerien music that would go on to form the base of the modern female music troupes.
