Nyboma & Madilu - Stop Feu Rouge,Bleu Caraïbes

Today's post is giving me trouble from the beginning. First, my
image moderating program refuses to rescale my coverpic.
Then after rebooting it finally works. I spent an hour to remove
the permanent marker with which some former owner wrote
his name on the sleeve. Trying to upload the image, blogger
refuses my upgraded photo. Damn, lots of work for nothing,
I am already happy blogger accepted the unfixed picture.

Good, let's forget about the stress and continue to bring
you this LP. Two famous voices on one album, Nyboma
Mwan-Dido and Madilu System, le Grand Ninja. I have no
idea in what year it was released, somewhere halfway the
eighties I presume. With Pompon Kuleta, Odette, Kiwa Kana
Aime, Lokassa ya Mbongo, Mayaula Mayoni, Dally Kimoko,
Nguma, Arsene Kunde, Djudju and Nado. Hope U like.

The 300th Congolese post at the Global Groove.
Oh yes my dear visitor, this is wonderful. On 'african' we
have this 1974 album by Orchestre Bella-Bella. It is
another jewel from Congo's seventies you don't want
to miss. Number 360.064 was still absent in our list
but today that finally changes. The brothers Soki
wrote some fine songs and 'african' took care of
a nice atmospheric cover for the album.
Pure gold.

Alcione - Alcione,Philips 1981

Woke up with a samba feeling today. This 1981 LP by
Alcione has a lot of the earlier stuff. It sounds well produced
like it should coming from '81, but the music has a strong 70's
feel. I think this woman has a unique voice, so powerful, so strong,
I can't seem to get enough of it. The LP is a bit dusty maybe
but it contains some great songs, track 12 even has
an African title and touch, rare, hope U like.

le Likembé Geant, direction Nkouba André,Sonafric 50052, 1977

I gave you one number on the first 'Congo, Tours de Force'
compilation. The likembé geant or 'kisansi' is an instrument,
used to accompany the telling of legends, at night, by the
fireside. That's what the backsleeve tells us. This group, led
by Nkouba André or Kouran, brings us some swell songs.
I found a very short but nice youtube film, not this group,

Yamoah's Band - Asem Sebe,Rainbow

Second Album by Yamoah's Band which started in 1957
under this name. Leader of the group is Peter Kwabena
Yamoah. Unfortunately the hole in the middle is not
located as it should be which causes the music to get
falser towards the end of the sides. Still, especially in
the beginning of the LP, it is very enjoyable.
Listen to this rare Ghanaian highlife.

Abaraka Guitar Band of Nigeria - '77,Melody Sound Stores / Feathers 1977

Sometimes it can be very annoying, it depends of your
mood I think, but sometimes also, it can be enjoyable.
I'm talking about crackely old LP's, and this is one of
them. Somehow I kinda liked it when listening to this
1977 Nigerian album. It's sleeve has hardly survived
the 34 years and the vinyl is in comparable state.
Just imagine sitting and listening by the fireside,
close y'r eyes and before you know it you only
hear the sweet rhythms, give it a try.

Good evening, welcome back after a day of blogger
chaos and confusion. I woke up this morning and
found my two latest posts gone. Blogger was buisy
with maintenance and blew it somehow. I decided
not to wait and took immediate action to repost them.

What do we have for you today ? Michelino, who spent
10 years with l'Afrisa International and 4 years with
Franco's TP OK Jazz at this point, gathered Rochereau,
Franco and some collegues to do this project on the
lesser known Michita label in 1984. Check it out.

Well Fernando from Zaragoza, I guess this is your
lucky day. First visit at the GG and you already find what
you've been looking for so long. It just so happens I had
this one waiting for the appropriate moment and that might
aswell be today. Isn't it strange they wrote his name wrong ?
I can't imagine you don't check the spelling before print,

I can't imagine that.

Sparrow,RCA 1959

  

It is not an easy task to find sixties Trinidad stuff let alone
even older. This Lp by Sparrow is from 1959 and before he
was called 'Mighty Sparrow'. It has 1959 Hi-Fidelity which
didn't have a whole lot of dynamics and that shows. Still,
eventhough it doesn't sound fantastic, this album is a rare
piece of old calypso, in fact it is Sparrow's first recording
for RCA. Click on the backsleeve to read it properly
and get it while you can. I am especially happy to
finally have the original 'Benwood Dick', been
searching for that a long time.
