Hope to be able to have you guys round when I get a pre-amp for my record player so we can have a few drinks and enjoy some good records (this one in particular), for lovers of afrobeat, its everything that you will probably know and love about the genre, for those who have yet to dig deeper into the amazing rhythm and soul of African music, then I see this as a pretty great place to start (also highly recommend the Africa 100 playlist - Thanks Tom!). For the afrocentrics mentioned earlier, think raw, Mulatu-esque percussion doused in a concoction of funk fueled by blazing horns, tight percussive rhythms and a fair amount of dub delay.
