Good evening, tonight’s post is one you can’t miss. I found this album in
such wonderful condition, it’s some 31 years old but spins as new.
I think I made a mistake, the file-tag says 1977, sorry. It is from 1979.
You can change it yourself maybe. Part from the state this LP’s in, it’s
music is also fantastic, I’m sure you’ll agree. Play it loud and dance
your socks off. Orchestre Stukas rocks…

tracks;

1 Libota
2 Madimbadie
3 Bomatracien
4 Na regretter

If you are familiar with Discos Fuentes de Colombia you
know that pretty women go together with their music. So

On Deram, a division of Decca West Africa, this Nigerian
release of Congolese music. Quite a combination, and to
complete the story it’s been distributed by Rogers All Stars.
This volume 5 brings us 10 fabulous tracks of which we heard
a couple before. It has a few crackles but still
deserves some spinning, enjoy.

If I understood this right, this LP should be from 1972. The group
started in 1964 and this release must be from after their 8th
anniversary. It is truly wonderful and in good condition.
Track 1,2 and 3 go together, track 4 and 5 aswell.
Great album, great picture, all yours.

tracks;

1 Mahoungo
2 Mama Yirati mi leliwe

On Nigeria’s Afrodisia label we find this album from 1989.
King Ubulu’s International Band of Africa’s sparkling rhythms
grab you straight away and it’s hard not to get up from your
chair and dance across the room. So don’t hesitate.

tracks;

1 Onweli egwu na amu ka nma
2 Osa asaa
3 Onu onye ba adono

Certainly I’m not the first blogger to post this here LP.
Every self respecting African music collector should have this
in their archive and I’m sure most of you already do. It’s a classic
and therefore it is justified to appear oncemore I guess. If you didn’t
have it yet, take your chance today.
With Eric Agyeman, Thomas Frimpong,
sublime highlife from Ghana.
