Notes
Vinyl LP pressing. Wganda Kenya was ahead of it's time, anticipating current contemporary Afro-Latin-funk trends in a prescient way that has inspired a legion of fans across the globe. As part of that legacy, Africa 5000 (1975) has a legendary reputation as one of Discos Fuentes' best hard-to-find Afro Caribbean funk records and is a highly prized collector's piece. This LP features several classic dance floor gems as well as some lesser-known nuggets and a non-album bonus cut, plus informative notes. The epic 'La torta' ('The Cake') kicks things off with a lively Colombian interpretation of Haitian compas. The tune is still remembered as a big picó (amplified sound system) hit at the verbenas (outdoor dance parties). 'Fiebre de lepra' ('Leprosy Fever') was also released as a 45 single and is certainly one of Wganda Kenya's wilder tracks. Funky wah-wah guitar, makossa style bass, manic organ, and feverishly insane vocals (from Wilson "Saoko" Manyoma and Joe Arroyo) indicate that Fruko and his pals were having a ball goofing around in the studio.

    In respect of a buyer's market, eBay has trumped Amazon for sheer variety. When you're laser focused on finding a particular product, and impulsively buy it, the last thing you need is indifference from a seller. MovieMars took more than five days to process my order, and some four weeks after despatching it, the tracking tool stopped working. If there's anything that kills anticipation, it's the waiting so thankfully eBay stepped in when my item failed to arrive.
