DIBANGO MANU - VINYL ELECTRIC AFRICA [VINYL]

Popis - ELECTRIC AFRICA [VINYL]:
This 1985 album hooked up Manu Dibango and the Soul Makossa Gang with New York avant garde producer Bill Laswell, jazz pianist Herbie Hancock, Parliament/Funkadelic keyboard player Bernie Worrell, Pan African synthesist Wally Badarou, New York guitarist Nicky Scopelitis, African drummer Aiyb Dieng and Malian kora virtuoso Mory Kante. Manu and Laswell fused synthesizers and kora, talking drums and samples, and ngoni and electric guitar. What it all boils down to is world beat in its truest sense. 'Electric Africa' is an hypnotic and upbeat Afro-funk classic that will rock every part your body (and mind). Now this set is finally back on wax (for the first time since 1985), available as a limited edition of 500 copies.
