Oladipo (feat. Chief Udoh Essiet, Tony Allen) “We’re thrilled to present Oladipo, the first single from Franck Biyong’s forthcoming 'Radio Masoda' album on Tangential Music. The Cameroonian master musician and composer is joined by the equally masterful Chief Udoh Essiet (Fela Kuti & Egypt 80, Roy Ayers, King Sunny Ade) from Nigeria on this exhilarating tribute to their belovedelder Tony Allen, the co-founder of Afrobeat and one of the greatest drummers ever. Propelled by Tony Allen’s high energy drumming (from when they all recorded together) and with passionately sung Yoruba lyrics that were written originally as a funeral mourn to him by Chief Udoh, Oladipo sounds more of a celebration than a memorial. As vital as anything from the ‘golden age’ of African music, this is a stunning tribute to one of the elders who made it so golden”

Afrosound - Cabeza de Chorlito (1973)
Fun and funky Colombian psych cumbia. Cabeza de Chorlito seems to translate to ‘knucklehead”
Afrosound - El Chorillo (1973)
Can’t get this one out of my head. How to describe it? Very catchy, Colombian craziness produced by Fruko.
Afrosound - Carruseles (1974)
Here’s some Colombian cumbia with cool space age and psych touches.
