Super 5 International – Vol. 1
Soul Posters / Tabansi SP 2121 / TRL 119

12 September 2020|Highlife, Nigeria|3 Comments

In march and october of 2010 we had two of their albums.
On those they were called ‘Original Super 5’, there are four
records on my shelf under the name ‘Super 5 International’.
Today the first of these called vol. 1. Topnotch Nigerian high-
life of which we find no year of release. Bright sounding as if
recorded only yesterday. Get it and spread it ..

In maart en oktober van het jaar 2010 hadden we reeds twee
van hun albums hier op de Global Groove. Die kwamen ooit uit
onder de naam ‘Original Super 5’. Ik heb er nog eens vier op de
plank waarop ze ‘Super 5 International’ heten. Vandaag de eerste
hiervan. Sterke Nigeriaanse highlife waarvan we geen jaar van
uitgifte weten. Helder klinkend alsof hij gisteren werd opgenomen.
Down, deel en luister zoals altijd ..

Goedemorgen groevers, Ik kreeg een bericht van Gloomood,
hij of zij wees me op een post uit 2009 met slechte cover foto.
Ik heb deze maar eens opnieuw gemaakt en de file aangepast
aan de eisen van vandaag. Wat hebben we hier .. ?
Een re-post van een van Bezerra’s belangrijkste platen, zijn
songs staan zonder uitzondering bol van maatschappij kritische
teksten, zeer humoristisch en vol ironie. Het criminele en drugs
gerelateerde milieu komt ruimschoots aan bod.

Good morning groovers, I received message of Gloomood
saying one of our 2009 posts still had a quite poor sleeve
picture. It was time to restore the file and the post.
What do we have here .. ?
A re-post of one of Bezerra da Silva’s most important albums.
His songs are always display of political and society critics.
Very humoristic lyrics about criminals and drug related
matters.

Beya Moke – Various Artists
RCA Africana 1977

25 August 2020|Benga, Kenya, South Africa, Tanzania, Various African|3 Comments

Blog friend Pete asked me to rip this album again as two
takes, side-A and side-B to avoid the nasty cuts. He is right
to wish for it, the skips were sometimes put at the wrong
place. The best listening experience is as two complete sides.
I removed the previous posting of this great record. Nowadays
I always follow this simple rule, no more nasty cuts ..

Blog vriend Pete vroeg me deze plaat opnieuw te rippen als
tracks, kant-A en kant-B om de slechte cuts te vermijden. Hij
heeft groot gelijk, de nummer wisselingen zaten soms wat
scheef. Het luistert het lekkerst gewoon als twee volledige
kanten. Ik heb de eerdere post van deze plaat verwijderd.
Tegenwoordig volg ik telkens deze simpele methode,
geen foute cuts meer dus ..
