‘Paul Ngozi’s debut album of rawly intense proto-punk and garage Zamrock, featuring Chrissy Zebby Tembo. From 1976, the same year as Lazy Bones!! by Witch, and Rikki Ililonga’s Zambia, ushering in the golden era of Zamrock and trailering a dozen Paul Ngozi and Ngozi Family releases, bestride funk and punk, driving hard rock and Zambian folk melodies and rhythms.’

Dark, funky and grooving, inventive and flowing but punchy and sharply focussed. Moebius’ electronics, Neumeier’s drumming, Plank’s engineering: from the early eighties but fresh as anything.
40th Anniversary Edition: hand numbered, limited edition, white vinyl.

Piano / cello duets.

Deadly digi sufferers, arranged by Noel Davy from King Tubbys. A one-off on Daniel Senior’s label, originally out in 1985, right on the cusp of the Sleng Teng revolution; finely reissued by Digikiller. A must.

Like volumes one and three, drawing on the legendary Amha Records catalogue, with several newcomers to this fantastic series, and a couple of very early Mulatus. You know what to do.

Lost Treasures From The Vaults, 1959-69, Volume Three.

Scintillating fusion from 1976, produced by Airto Moreira, with arrangements by George Duke, featuring dazzling turns by the likes of Hermeto Pascoal, Raul de Souza, Egberto Gismonti, and Robertinho Silva. Wonderful stuff.
