Funky highlife and soulful, tropical reggae by the Afro Funk Band de Lomé, with a political focus which saw Itadi fleeing Togo. An expanded version of the LP self-released in 1983, adding two previously unreleased tracks, a new interview, and unseen photos.

Grooving, spaced-out, late-seventies jazz-funk, which first surfaced in 2006 on the Inedit 79 compilation. Same super-classy spaceway as Fantasy by Earth Wind & Fire. That Raekwon knows a tune when he hears one.

Olima Anditi is a blind guitarist beloved throughout Western Kenya for his old Luo songs about love, morality and politics. This warmly intimate session was recorded in his room in Kisumu, in 2010. Like Usiende Ukualale, it’s lovingly presented, with a colour booklet.

The Vannier collaborator births this Finders Keepers’ imprint with a late-sixties knockabout conceptual-pop riposte to musique concrete: found sound, industrial noise, piano jazz, avant orchestration, signature cimbalom.

Ducking and diving between London and Kingston JA, Winston Edwards cut the Melodian on the monumental Conquering Lion rhythm in the mid-70s, covering Eddie Floyd. Dark, hurting and self-disgusted… bad tune.

Always hard-sought-after for the jazz dance gem Tabu, and the overall blend of Cal Tjader, Les Baxter and Luiz Bonfa. “In a way it’s world music,” says Don. “Polynesian, samba, Brazil, jazz, West Indian. It has the energy of Latin and funk records.”

The Latin Jazz classic from 1969, huge on the Dingwalls scene back in the day for the sizzling dancer Tema De Alma Latina.
