Teaspoon Ndelu — Sputla

from Ke Kopa Madulo (1981)

Disco funk from South African sax legend Teaspoon Ndelu. Just a few years before, American disco hit big in the townships, crosspollinating local mbaqanga and soul styles with glossy dancefloor sounds. Here's the result. Yes please!

From the back of the LP: “Side Two kicks off with Sputla, a township lingua franca for a gin and tonic mix. If you are a man who seldom sleeps at home, better listen to this woman’s lament.”

Grab the album over at Electric Jive, an excellent collection of rare and out-of-print recordings from South Africa.
