Nahawa Doumbia is one of Mali's defining vocalists of the last four decades. Her work journeys through progressive stages of musical evolution and sonic vogues, making it hard to summarize or even comprehend. She's played a part in popular music since the late '70s, as her version of Wassoulou music developed from vocals-and-guitar duo into full-scale touring bands packing a bombastic, electrified punch. As Doumbia puts it, "My music has changed multiple times to this day... The more I progressed in my musical career, the more instruments I have had accompany my songs." Awesome Tapes From Africa will release Doumbia's debut recording La Grande Cantatrice Malienne Vol 1 this August, building on the success of the label's first-ever reissue back in 2011, Doumbia's La Grande Cantatrice Malienne Vol 3. This seminal classic, which is still sought-after in Mali today, will finally be available for the first time internationally with remastered audio on LP, CD, Tape and Digital formats. The recording looks back to the beginning of Doumbia's long career, when she was performing in a simple voice and acoustic guitar format. This was before she added bass and drums, and finally the electric guitar and synths for which she became known more recently. Released in 1981 by the excellent Côte d'Ivoire-based AS Records, the singer was barely 20 years old when it was recorded. She was accompanied by her future husband N'Gou Bagayoko on acoustic guitar, whose style echoes the nimble runs of traditional kamele n'goni players. The stark simplicity of this highly intimate recording- the audible room acoustics, the occasionally in-the-red vocals-do not obscure the mature strength of her voice. On Vol 1 Doumbia performs her songs with the tenacity and hunger of a young artist on the cusp. "When I think about it, first, I am reminded of how long ago it was. It's one of the albums that I love most because it reminds me of my youth. I was so young and my voice was light and joyful. I still listen to some of those songs today. I am really proud of that first album because that's where it all began. It shows me how far I've come in my personal and artistic life; it gives me the courage I need to keep going forward, and makes me appreciate all the years of dedication and hard work I put into my musical career." These early songs are rhythmically built around Bagayoko's sensitive guitar, as his fingers brush the fretboard and gently outline the melodies. Although this record predates the singer's use of percussion, the driving skeletal didadi rhythm is apparent in the songs. Later albums like Vol 3 further prioritize her hometown didadi beat and the result made her famous.

Can't choose the dino... sad!
I have a beagle/jack russel mix. Needless to say, he is very high-energy and does best when given a job to do that involves chewing.
He LOVES his Novabone and Nylabone- but tears thru the larger sizes in a single afternoon- so when I saw this I was very happy, because it is an unusual shape and durable! Amazon's iphone app let you scan in an item and find it cheaper on Amazon- so instead of the higher pet shop price, I scored a savings deal on Amazon! Nice!
My big, fat, sad complaint is that you cannot CHOOSE the dinosaur! I knew this when ordering and the stegosaurus arrived- honestly I was hoping for the T-Rex or the Brontosaurus but I guess you get what you get. Still, a beagle gnawing on a T-Rex would be pretty funny...

Great Toy for Teething and Strong Chewer
Eli is now 10 months old, a labrador retriever that proves time and time again he needs toys that he can chew, but won't fall apart. He cannot have the stuffed animal toys (no, those he'll tear apart in SECONDS, never mind minutes). Aside from the Kong and the antler, this is the only toy he can chew on that won't fall apart. Even animal bones will split in minutes.
Since he was a couple of months old, he has loved this Dinosaur Chew Toy. When he was teething, I'd put it in the freezer (sometimes put peanut butter on it to keep his interest). It was not only great for teething, but also massaged his gums. Now that he's out of teething phase, he still loves to chew on it.
For the money, this is worth it. It's saved the furniture and the house from being chewed on, as he focused on this toy instead. Highly recommend, especially for the price. For any strong-chewing pup or dog in particular, this toy won't shatter, split or break apart.

Cracked Tooth
Update: While I originally loved this product and so did my dogs, I feel the need to update this review. The Dura Chew Nylabones are incredibly hard, which is what makes them last so long. However, one of our dogs did crack a tooth recently from chewing on a Dura Chew. Since then, we have been very hesitant to allow any of our dogs to chew on these as other reviews also state that dogs have cracked teeth. We have since thrown out all of the Dura Chews that we had. We are still using the regular Nylabone products (when they aren't made in China), but once those are gone we will not buy any additional products from Nylabone. We have been buying Whimzees for our dogs for the last two years or so and they are a healthy edible alternative. They do not last as long because they are edible, but I have the peace of mind in knowing that my dogs are safe with them. Another healthy alternative would be antlers, which we also give to our dogs and they usually last a long time.
Original review: Another great Nylabone product. I love that dogs can chew on Nylabone products and they can't pull off pieces like products from other brands (Hartz for example). The Dura Chews are especially great for our hard chewers and they last forever! I love all of the dimples on their chews too, they're great for keeping our dogs' teeth clean. The vet is always impressed when they check their teeth.

Puppy friendly

This is not designed for dogs who are chewers. I gave this to my adult dog thinking she could play with it and be entertained for a little while. She had it ripped up and spread around the room in about 10 seconds. I would maybe recommend this for puppies to have something softer and gentle on their little teeth and gums. It also makes a bot of a mess once it starts coming apart so I suggest using outside or where it can be contained. Little high of a price point for the value I got out of it
