"Recorded in Lagos, Nigeria in 1973, Introducing Hedzoleh Soundz represents the culmination of Masekela’s career-long efforts to fuse the improvisational drive of jazz with the ageless rhythms of Africa. No real equivalent of this record exists anywhere. It is one of the most perfectly realized excursions by a notable jazz musician into an authentic form of African music. And no other indigenous Afrobeat or Afro-jazz-funk album surpasses the musicianship and creative energy of this one. Masekela’s trumpet rides upon a roiling sea of African rhythms, awash with ideas and emotion. The music draws you in so completely that the need to flip the record feels like a rude awakening." (from MustHear.com.)
Well, lucky or not, the fact is: we don't need to flip the record anymore...
so we can dive and not resurface till the all thing is done,
and even put this on 'repeat' if we may. Who will complain?
Fancy some extra reading? Dig the review HERE!
So, before the day is done...catch this sound! Let Hugh Masekela shower his joy & melodies on U...
