Left to right: Hasse Walli, Doudou Ndiaye Mbengue, Ndioba Gueye, Ndiaga Mbaye, Pape Mbaye, Cheikh Diene, Meissa Niang.
This band proceeded to record the groundbreaking CD "Teranga", which was released as two cassettes in Senegal. Recorded in April 1992 in Helsinki, Finland, it contained the song Bamba, which became on of the biggest hits ever in Senegal.
Before the band returned home in September, Hasse produced a videoclip of the song.
I February 1993, two months after the cassette was released in Dakar, the video suddenly appeared on Senegalese TV. Radioplay had already made Bamba very popular, and the video did the rest, making Bamba the best known song of Hasse Walli & Asamaan.
