T.P. Orchestre Poly Rythmo of
the Peoples Republic of Benin
Special Festac 77 in Nigeria
Albarika Store 1977

T.P. Poly Rythmo, front

On one of my last recordhunts I found this LP by T.P. Orchestre Poly
Rythmo of the Peoples Republic of Benin. African groups love long names.
And we love their music, they truly honour their name by delivering
this super rhythmic highlife. The second side starts kinda abrupt,
sorry but it has little damage. Fantastic dancing material.

    (^_^) Le Tout Puissant Orchestre Poly Rythmo De Cotonou (or “of the Peoples Republic of Benin,” or “de Dahomey”) are really unmatched. Nice find.

    Thank you again. And I concur with Anonymous, who said “Media fire is much better than rapidshare.” From a downloader’s point of view, it is the difference between night and day. MediaFire doesn’t make me jump through hoops, and the download speed is twice as fast as what I was getting with the “Premium” rapidshare downloads.

    Hey Moos! Thanks for all the great music. Just going through the “back catalogue,” as it were. Hope you don’t mind if I inform you of any dead links I find…
    Here’s another one. Any chance of a re-up?
