About
The ’60s and ’70s were a time of immense cultural upheaval and musical experimentation in Africa, and that’s apparent in this potent collection of West African psychedelia. Ofo & The Black Company unleash serious guitar fuzz on the crate-digger favorite “Allah Wakbarr.” The atmospheric Afro-Cuban rhythms of Sorry Bamba’s “Porry” lead to an ecstatic climax of guitars and horn riffs, and the title track is what The Rolling Stones might sound like if Mick and Keith were left to ripen under the desert sun.
