Youssou N’Dour is one of the true superstars of African music. A native of Dakar in Senegal he has been singing and performing since his childhood. He has performed with many leading western artists including Paul Simon, Neneh Cherry and Branford Marsalis but is perhaps best known for his association with Peter Gabriel. He was one of the stars of the 1988 Amnesty Tour (available on DVD from Eagle Vision EREDV313) and appeared at the recent Live 8 concerts in Hyde Park, the Eden Project, Paris and Edinburgh – three of them on the same day!

This concert from 1989 features Youssou N’Dour with his band Le Super Etoile de Dakar and was the first of four appearances he has made at the Montreux festival to date. N’Dour’s voice is as fine as ever and the show is a showcase for the colour, emotion and energy so characteristic of his performances.

As a bonus there are six tracks included from his 1995 concert including his worldwide hit Seven Seconds which he performed at the Live 8 concerts with Dido.
