Various (east African Musiki Wa Dansi Classics)

Urgent Jumping!

During the boom years of the 1960s and on into the 70s, East Africa, in particular Nairobi, was an irresistible magnet for musicians throughout the continent. Here they could record during the day and work in a club at night. From all parts of Kenya, tanzania, Zambia, Zaire, South Africa and beyond, musicians switched bands, swapped tunes, jammed, performed and generally added to the musical DNA that even now resonates around the world. The resulting "perfect storm of international and parachial musical genius' gave birth to a standard of musicianship that has echoed down the decades. In the 80s, while bands such as Samba Mapangala & Orchestra Virunga were able to find their first new audiences outside of Kenya, Congolese artists scuch as Tabu Ley and Mbilia Bal found some of their most enthousiastic fans inside the region. Check out this great 27 tracks - recorded in East Africa between 1972- 1982..
