Zazou Bikaye —
Mr Manager ... LP Crammed (Belgium), 1985. Sealed ...
Out Of Stock
80s Afro grooves, recorded in Belgium – given a nice twist by the Crammed Discs label, which was one of the first to really open up African styles with more European elements! Bony Bikaye handles vocals, and Hector Zazou plays plenty of keyboards and adds in beat – so there's an electro-styled groove to most cuts, in a mode that's similar to some of the New Africa material on Celluloid Records from the same time! The remaining member of the group handles lots of saxophone solos – but the trio also get some studio help that includes more saxophone from Marc Hollander. Titles include "Angel", "Mr Manager", "Nostalgie", and "Soki Akei". (Global Grooves, Soul)LP, Vinyl record album

Guy Cuevas —
Total Cuevas ... CD Libreville (France), Early 80s. Used ...
Out Of Stock
Funky French club tracks from the start of the 80s – all the brainchild of DJ Guy Cuevas, who has a perfect ear for mixing together dancefloor styles and a nice range of global elements! And sure, lots of folks worked in that territory during the 80s world music boom – but Cuevas was one of the first, and has a style that's a lot more like some of the best early Celluloid/Crammed material – with a vibe that stretches nicely from the clubs of Paris to some of the best cross-cultural experiments of the downtown scene in New York! The well-done set brings together tracks from a few different albums and 12" singles – and titles include "Everywhere Is My Home", "Gallo Negro (Ronan mix)", "Qiereme Un Poco (inst mix)", "Ebony Game", "Island In My Mind (edit)", and three different mixes of the great cut "Obsession" – Paris, London, and Nassau mixes!
