Senegalese vocalist and guitarist Mansour Seck was best known in international circles for his close association with lifelong friend Baaba Maal. Although he appeared on nearly all Maal's albums, Seck did not record his first solo effort, N'der Fouta Tooro, Vol. 1, until the mid-'90s. While he was adept at playing Maal's more modernized styles of African music, Seck remained most comfortable playing acoustic versions of the ancient songs. His favorite topics were Senegalese culture, traditions, and social problems, as well as his fervent wish for peace. In terms of recording output, he was most active as a soloist in the '90s and surfaced on the compilation The Rough Guide to the Music of Senegal in 2013.
